WELCOME

The Landlord and Tenant Board’s role is to provide information about the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) and to resolve disputes between most residential landlords and tenants. 

On January 25th, 2011, our Board became part of the newly designated social justice tribunals cluster.  This second cluster brings together our Board and six other important adjudicative tribunals – Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario, Social Benefits Tribunal, Custody Review Board, Child and Family Services Review Board and Special Education Tribunal (English) and Special Education Tribunal (French). The mandate of these tribunals is to provide all Ontarians with timely access to specialized, expert and effective dispute resolution in a wide range of matters that profoundly affect their everyday lives.

The cluster is led by Executive Chair Michael Gottheil. The former Chairs of the seven adjudicative tribunals were re-designated as Associate Chairs.  You may find more information about the Executive Chair, the social justice tribunals cluster, its structure and access to the other tribunals at www.sjto.gov.on.ca.
