Can an Ontario Landlord Check a Tenant’s Criminal Record? The Narrow Legal Answer
In Ontario, a prospective tenant’s criminal record is not a protected ground under the Human Rights Code’s housing provisions — but it is also not on O. Reg. 290/98’s list of permitted tenant-screening practices. What that gap means, why record of offences is treated differently in employment, and why a blanket criminal-record policy can still be examined for constructive discrimination. General information, not legal advice.
安省房东能不能查、能不能凭犯罪记录拒租客？
犯罪记录不在安省《人权法典》住房条款的受保护理由清单里，但也不在省里明文允许房东做的事清单里。本文只讲这个窄法律点：住房与就业条款的清单为什么不同，以及「不在清单上」为什么不等于可以随便用。
新建出租楼为什么地税更轻？安省「新多单元住宅」物业税类别一文讲清
同样值钱的出租楼，新建的为什么地税更轻？拆解安省「新多单元住宅」（new multi-residential）物业税类别：什么楼算、税率上限为何被限在 1.0 到 1.1、能享受 35 个课税年度、与普通多单元住宅和 condo 的区别，以及对投资持有的意义。

房东能收「滞纳金」吗？迟交罚金、跳票手续费、加人管理费——RTA 第 134 条到底划了哪条线
安省房东除了房租还能向租客收什么？RTA 第 134 条把迟交罚金、跳票手续费、加人费、变相押金等大多挡在门外，只有 O. Reg 516/06 第 17 条列的少数例外（如不超过 $20 的跳票管理费）才合法。本文讲清这条线，以及租客被多收后如何依第 135 条在一年内向 LTB 追回。
Can a Landlord Ban You From Running a Business in a Rental? Two Rulebooks, Two Different Referees
Can a landlord simply ban a tenant from running a business in a rental? Two independent rulebooks decide it — the lease and municipal home occupation zoning — and Toronto rewrote the zoning layer effective December 17, 2025, while the City online consolidation still shows the old rules.
租客想在出租屋里做点小生意，房东能在租约里一句话禁掉吗？先分清同时管这件事的两套规则
租客能不能在出租屋里开网店、做咨询、上门服务？房东写一句「禁止经营」就能一票否决吗？其实有两套互不隶属的规则同时管：安省标准租约对做生意一个字没写，房东想加限制要走第 15 条；真正的硬约束是你所在城市的 home occupation 分区条文，和房东无关。多伦多这一层 2025 年 12 月刚被改写，网上多数说法已过时。
