one in six LTB order is ex parte
Ontario’s LTB issued 40,844 orders between January and May 2026 — and 6,523 of them, almost 1 in 6, were ex parte. Decided without either side in the room.
That’s not automatically a red flag. Sometimes it’s a no-show, sometimes an unopposed filing. But it’s worth knowing how often the system rules without a hearing.
Worth watching for anyone navigating the LTB from either side of the table, Smarties.
