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 tenant had not vacated the rental unit prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective January 31, 2021. The tenant is ordered to pay $19,822.82 to the landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the termination date, compensation for use of the unit, and the cost of filing the application, less the amount owed to the tenant for the rent abatement. If the full amount is paid by January 31, 2021, the eviction order will be void and the tenant can remain in the unit.
