Ontario's rental regulations are changing again.

A new round of Residential Tenancies Act updates takes effect on September 21, 2026, after earlier changes came into force on July 1st.

Among them is a requirement that tenants claimed to be in arrears must pay 50% of the amount before disputing it at a Landlord and Tenant Board hearing.

There are also changes affecting N4 notices, persistent late payments, eviction hearings, landlord compensation, and renovictions.
