Background: This case arose under the Residential Tenancy Act (RTA), S.B.C. 2002, c. 78. Steve Green, the petitioner, sought to set aside a decision by the Residential Tenancy Branch (RTB) and an Order for Possession dated April 5, 2023, made in favor of Surjit Kooner, the respondent and landlord.

Steve Green, residing with his family, faced eviction due to alleged breaches of the tenancy agreement, including keeping pets in violation of the "NO PETS ALLOWED" clause and changing locks without landlord consent. Green claimed his dog was a required service animal, but evidence, including complaints of barking, suggested otherwise.

Legal Issue: The main issue was whether the RTB’s decision was patently unreasonable due to inadequate reasons and lack of rational analysis.

Held: The court upheld the RTB’s decision, finding it was not patently unreasonable. Steve Green’s application was dismissed. The court ordered Green to vacate the premises by June 30, 2024.

Costs/Damages Awarded: No order for costs was made due to Green's lack of resources.
