I always like to say the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away," says Irwin Kumka, chairman of the Insurance Brokers of Manitoba and partner with Ryan Gateway Insurance Brokers Inc. "That's why it's important to have a dialogue with your broker so that you reach a comfort level in terms of what's covered, and more importantly, what's not covered. "There's one good reason for it: You can afford to buy insurance, but you likely can't afford to pay the claim," he says. "If you end up in court, it's a case of 'Don't tell me what you did.' It's a case of 'Show me what you did,'" Kumka says.
Small claims court does not deal with such things as landlord and tenant matters, family law, estates or defamation for example. Small claims court decisions are subject to appeal to the Court of Queen's Bench, where the hearing is more formal and the rules of evidence are stricter.

In 1857, [Peguis] vented against the arrival of Europeans in a long letter to the British newspaper Colonial Intelligencer, known to be sympathetic to native peoples. "The Silver Chief," as Peguis called Lord Selkirk, never paid him in full for the land taken by the settlers, he said. Peguis wanted a kind of landlord-tenant relationship. Selkirk paid Peguis tobacco and ammunition as a first instalment on the land but Peguis expected to be paid "annually," a perpetual rent. That never happened. Peguis also sided with the colonists because he didn't like the fur traders. "The traders have never done anything but rob and keep us poor," Peguis said. (This is likely true but keep in mind that wholesale buyers, from the Manitoba Fresh Water Fish Marketing Board to Wal-Mart, are rarely loved...
The building's landlord refused to comment about the incident yesterday, and would not say whether the woman was a tenant. A red sign with the words "Room for Rent, Quiet and Clean" is bolted to the front of the two-storey home. I said, 'Are you OK?' I said, 'Do you want me to call an ambulance?' "It was so fast," said the man. "Maybe five minutes" from the time he woke up to seeing the police roar by.
[Paul Serup]'s opinion is based on his own bitter experience, which began with his attack near Chetwynd, B. C. in September 2003. He was working as a first-aid attendant on a construction site when he spotted a car overturned in the ditch along the highway. Serup went to see if anyone was hurt but found the vehicle empty. Gielzecki then emerged from the nearby woods, swearing and clearly upset. Without warning, the disturbed man held up a compound bow and arrow, pulled back and fired a shot straight into Serup's face. The arrow entered his chin, tore away a portion of his jaw and partially exited through his neck. I wasn't expecting him to be out as soon as he was," Serup said Thursday. "I thought the decision of the review board was very flawed. I strenuously protested but to no avail...

Among several proposed changes to the Landlord Tenant Act is a provision enabling landlords to charge a "pet deposit," similar to a damage deposit, to cover replacement costs if Rover chews up the carpeting. The Fluffy Law, named after that cat, was spearheaded by a group of concerned pet lovers that convinced an Ontario court it was discriminatory for landlords to advertise "no pets allowed.
[Mary Vaughan] had received a "notice to quit" earlier in the summer. The May 3 document gave her three months notice. I don't think senior citizens realize how vulnerable they can be when they're renters. The landlord-tenant relationship is unique. It's not just a business relationship, it's peoples' homes," [Megan Leslie] said. Leslie said in a building designed to create a community of seniors, such conflicts shouldn't result in "two older people becoming homeless.
tenant reps have really come into their own during the last decade," he said, "since real estate agency laws required real estate brokers to disclose who they were working on behalf of -- the tenant or the landlord. "It is now the norm for office leasing in Toronto, New York, Chicago or wherever there are a lot of head offices," he said. "And now it's filtering down to Winnipeg, which is a branch office centre." "The pivotal thing for us is that he keeps me informed about market conditions and about all of our options," [Bill Sommers] said. "That's work I used to have to do myself and it's time-consuming. This allows me to focus on the operational aspects of our business."
There is currently a petition circulating that I've been told will be presented to the landlord of the house in which [Ringo] lives. The petitioners, I and my husband included, are requesting the landlord be responsible and evict his/her tenant, as he is a danger to the community. "However, whether this will result in an eviction or any other change is beyond me. Can he/she simply refuse in the face of all this often criminal activity? If the landlord does nothing, I'm uncertain as to whether or not we have any legal recourse... [Jeremy Harewood] contacted the owner of the property -- a local real estate agent -- and appealed to him to evict Ringo for the good of the community. Failing that, Harewood said, the Safer Communities Act could be invoked, which would mean that when Ringo w...
