CANADA
Lease commercial business premises in Canada to business tenants with these downloadable and customizable commercial lease forms prepared in accordance with Canadian laws.
Are there laws in Canada that govern business premises leases?
The terms and conditions of commercial leases in Canada are generally governed by common law. There is very little regulation of business leases. The parties' rights and obligations are mainly just set out in writing in the lease agreement. That is why it's important for landlords to develop a well structured standard lease form, and for tenants to read and understand the document before signing it.
Current laws governing commercial leasing in Canada:
- British Columbia - Commercial Tenancy Act
- Northwest Territories - Commercial Tenancies Act
- Nunavut - Commercial Tenancies Act
- Ontario - Commercial Tenancies Act
- Quebec - Civil Code
- Yukon - Commercial Landlord and Tenant Act
