4. The Landlord stated that she also received a further two warning letters, one dated June 4, 2018, and one dated June 29, 2018, about AN having altercations with the security guard for the building, and for using a barbecue on his balcony in contravention of the CC rules. Because of her concerns about condominium rule violations and AN’s disruptive behaviour, she sought to have him evicted. The Landlord sought eviction immediately, but was willing to extend it until August 10, 2018, to permit AN to find alternative accommodation.
