I have a pretty clear cut situation- landlord needs to fix a leaking roof, he is refusing.

I want to file a case through LLO to get the rent board to force him to fix it.

Can this backfire? Can the landlord take "revenge"? Anyone with positive/negative experience with this sort of thing?

Thanks!

So I’m a landlord. I have two strong counter arguments, which explains the low rating, and why it won’t matter to OP:

Landlords generally never have a favourable interaction with LLO if a case is raised. A lot of them will file a negative review with LLO when that happens. I know this happens, because I’ve heard this from other landlords, some who claims to have filed multiple negative reviews.
Some renters with illegitimate complaints will run into a brick wall with LLO. They know the law, and they know when they have a case and when they don’t. If you’re being an idiot, breaking the contract, and then complaining to LLO about the repercussions, you’ll get denied. You are then likely also the type of individual to file a negative complaint, because you’re a whiny Karen type that can’t accept that you’re wrong.

OP has a legitimate case, and wont be affected by the nature of the vast majority of those reviews.
