Title: Toronto Star LTB item mentions virtual hearings
Post by: romank on April 12, 2023, 11:42:00 pm
An April 5 item in the Toronto Star said Jessica Bell M.P.P. is concerned about the online hearing process at the Landlord and Tenant board.

“If you do not speak English well, if you don’t have access to a reliable internet connection or a computer, you could be removed from the online hearing process and be evicted just because you ran out of cellphone minutes” Bell was quoted as saying.
