What is the difference between a lease and a tenancy?
Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Opseth v. Getz, 2004 SKCA 70 (CanLII):
There is an additional reason why this is not a tenancy from year to year. There was an agreement between the parties to the contrary. The parties agreed that there would be a lease for one year at a rent to be negotiated.[11] Thus, there was a lease for one year which had been renewed a number of times on terms that were negotiated each year. See Kretschmer v. Engelbrecht.[12]
