General Compensation (T5 Application)

Kara-Bibar v Al-Dulaimi, 2022 CanLII 86555 (ON LTB)

37. The Tenant’s testimony on this point was detailed and consistent and we have no reason to disbelieve him. We are persuaded by the Tenant’s testimony that he and his children experienced significant emotional distress as a result of the Landlord’s actions. Based on the evidence before us, and our knowledge of like similar cases, we find that an award of $2,000.00 is sufficient to recognize the emotional stress the Tenant and his family suffered as a result of the Landlord’s bad faith termination of tenancy. An order will issue accordingly.
