Bill 10, which holds landlords criminally liable for any drug activity on their properties, became law on June 4th.

Bill 10, put forward by Ontario Premier Doug Ford, passed into law on June 4th. Subtitled the Protect Ontario Through Safer Streets and Stronger Communities Act, it includes a clause that would hold landlords criminally liable for any illicit drug activity on their properties. The Schedule 8 clause targets drug trafficking, but also covers any possession that might indicate an intent to sell, even if it's just a few pills or a joint.
