Ball v. Metro Capital Management Inc., Re, 2002 CarswellOnt 8691[1]

[11] A notice by a landlord under section 64 of the Act, in addition to being a formal Notice to Terminate a Tenancy Early, is also a "notice to comply". Accordingly, as the tenant has the option "to comply", particulars of the allegations are essential to make the notice meaningful.

[12] Particulars should include dates and times of the alleged offensive conduct, together with a detailed description of the alleged conduct engaged in by the tenant.

[13] In the circumstances of this case, according to the materials, there were problems in the building relating to hot water. Where a landlord alleges a tenant of "harrassing its employees", it is particularly important that the notice clearly sets out sufficient details for a tenant to be put on notice that the particular acts complained of are alleged by the landlord to be "acts of harrassment" as compared to legitimate inquiries of a "rightfully assertive tenant".

[14] The Member of the Tribunal erred in failing to find that the Notice served on the Tenant was invalid for lacking in the required details.
