Under Toronto Municipal Code, Property Standards, I'm sure that bed bugs are covered under insects;
"Pest control.
All properties shall at all times be kept free of rodents, vermin, insects and other pests and from conditions which may encourage infestation by pests".
A landlord who violates this or any other section of Property Standards can be easily taken to the Landlord and Tenant Board if they fail to respond within a reasonable time period, with documentation of course. Unfortunately most people don't know their rights as renters in Toronto and some landlords take great advantage of that.
