That's true but there is more in the Tenant Protection Act (Ontario).

Check out section 74. Some reasons for eviction listed:

(a) subject to subsection (3), the past behaviour of an animal of that
species has substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment
of the residential complex for all usual purposes by the landlord or
other tenants;

 (b) subject to subsection (4), the presence of an animal of that
 species has caused the landlord or another tenant to suffer a
 serious allergic reaction; or

 (c) the presence of an animal of that species or breed is inherently
dangerous to the safety of the landlord or the other tenants.
