Your tenancy

Tell us the basics. CRITICAL Saskatchewan rule: the 7-BUSINESS-DAY clock under RTA s.32(1) runs from END OF TENANCY ('seven days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays'). Saskatchewan has ONE deposit cap (s.25(1)) at one month's rent — NO separate pet category. NO doubling penalty.
