The Province introduced regulation changes and enhanced web content to improve services and increase the confidence of renters and landlords. This includes: 

• Aligning notice periods to end a tenancy to be consistent with the recent change requiring homebuyers to give renters three months’ notice of eviction; 
• Creating more transparency for landlords and renters by publishing the outcomes of monetary orders; 
• Changing landlords’ requirements for holding onto a tenants’ abandoned property; and 
• Equipping landlords and renters with the guides and tool kits they need to better navigate hearings.
