he still has 11 days to respond. i've heard nothing at all, at this point.

right now, i'm planning to file on november 1st for two court orders:

1) an order to hire a plumber.
2) an order to ensure that the temperature in the unit is at least 20 degrees celsius at all times.

both landlord obligations are in the residential tenancies act.

it's an open and shut case of obvious negligence.

my aim at this time is for him to carry out his responsibilities under the law. so, i'm not going to immediately be seeking damages. it will only be if he refuses to abide by the court order that i'll be seeking compensation for his negligence.

right now, i want him to solve the problem, not for him to write me a check.

i'm hoping i can drag this out long enough to get a space in subsidized housing; the root cause of these perpetual landlord negligence problems is the fact that they're forcing disabled people to use market housing. this is what happens - complete negligence. i have to take him to court to get him to turn the heat on...

the liberals are supposed to do better than this
