CTV News reports:

"Ontario is more than doubling the maximum rate a landlord can raise a tenant's rent next year – marking the highest rent increase guideline in the province in a decade.

On Wednesday, the province announced Ontario’s rent increase guideline for 2023 is 2.5 per cent.

Previously, landlords were allowed to raise rent by 1.2 per cent in 2022, following a rent freeze that rolled out in 2020 to help Ontarians through the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The last time Ontario’s rent increase guidelines reached 2.5 per cent was in 2013."
