Question:What tenant legal rights and duties in Ontario affect residential renters day-to-day, and when should I contact a paralegal?

Answer:For Ontario residential tenants, common rights and duties typically cover paying rent, maintaining the unit responsibly, privacy expectations, limits on landlord entry, and responding to issues that can lead to applications or hearings at the Landlord and Tenant Board.
