Also, in regards to a small claim being under 50k, I don't know if this would qualify for other reasons. Not every issue is applicable to small claims even if it is under 50k. I suspect this would be queen's bench.

Not sure what the claim is for, but a tenancy issue can be brought forth in small claims. I thought it would be more of an issue of negligent misstatement, where one party negligently makes a statement to which the other reasonably relies upon and suffers damages as a result.
As I have stated before, there
might be something to it, but only for those that actually acted on the statement prior to the City reversing its decision.
