What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the tenant did not void by paying the arrears.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective March 27, 2021. The tenant must pay the landlord $4,411.70 in rent arrears and application costs, plus $26.30 per day starting March 17, 2021 until the tenant vacates. If the tenant pays $4,986 by March 27, 2021, the eviction order will be void and the tenancy will continue.
