The maximum duration of a lease, in contrast, must be definite. It therefore is impossible to create a lease that would last “until the Maple Leafs next win the Cup.”30

30. The maximum duration must be definite, but a tenancy may end earlier. Therefore, it would be possible to have a lease “for 999 years or until the Maple Leafs next win the Cup.” It is enough that the lease is certain to end within 999 years, even though there is a slim chance that it will end earlier.
