Yes, the landlord may or may not restrict access to any parts of his property. You rent the apartment, not the backyard. The issue here would be if the restriction is missing from the lease, then the backyard would be considered a fixture of the property and would be an inclusive implied part of the leasehold.

Landlords can make their own rules on the property they rent. However, if they do not want tenants to use the backyard of the property, it must be set forth in the lease agreement.

Do the fair housing laws forbid the use of 'God' by a landlord?

Not sure what you mean. If you mean can a landlord discriminate in renting on the basis of religion, NO. If you mean can a landlord use the word "God" in speaking to you as a tenant - that's a matter of civility and if it offends you, you should politely ask whether the landlord could not use God's name when speaking with you. There is no guaranty how the landlord will react.

Does a landlord have the right to tell you who you may have in your apartment?

It depends on the contract you signed. Generally a landlord cannot tell you who to have in your apartment unless you are making excessive noise or someone is living with you on and off and even then seldom does a landlord say anything. Some apartments or condos can tell a tenant how many people can be in their place at one time and also demand that guests do not park outside the building or underground parking. I'd say on the whole that your landlord is stepping on your privacy rights if you are not causing any disruptions such as partying or loud music. A landlord by law in Canada has to give 24 hours notice to enter into your apartment, but can let themselves into your apartment if you are not home for emergency purposes only such as a leaky pipe, etc. ANSWER Open-ended questions like this are tedious, at best. I will forbid visitors who have a history of disruptions. I will forbid anyone I have evicted before. I will forbid anyone I have had complaints about. I will forbid anyone the police have told me are "problems." I will forbid groups of young teens hanging out in your place. Be more specific for a better answer.

Is it legal to lock a renter out of the kitchen?

If the tenant has the right to use the kitchen as part of his rent, the landlord may not forbid the tenant from using the kitchen. However, there may be more to it than this question that you're asking. Is the landlord sharing the kitchen with you the tenant? If so, he may have the right to restrict the hours during which you may use the kitchen. For example, he may close the kitchen after, let's say, 10:00 p.m. at night until 6:00 a.m. the next morning. But a tenant may not be locked out of his own kitchen. Nor can the landlord lock you out of the kitchen for not paying the rent.
