137 Notice to terminate other tenancies

(1) A notice to terminate a tenancy, including a tenancy at will, must be for a reasonable period.

(2) What constitutes a reasonable period of notice depends on the circumstances, including the nature of the tenancy, the circumstances surrounding the creation of the tenancy, the terms (if any) of the tenancy, and any proper implications from the agreement (if any) of the parties with respect to the tenancy.

(3) Subsection (1) does not apply to—

(a) a tenancy for which a period of notice has, expressly or impliedly, been agreed on by the parties; and

(b) a weekly, monthly, yearly or other periodic tenancy subject to this Act with respect to notices to terminate; and

(c) a tenancy at will arising because of the abolition by this Act of the implication of a tenancy from year to year.
