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 was not present at the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy will be terminated on April 7, 2023 unless the tenant pays $13,536 by March 31, 2023 or $14,086 by April 7, 2023 to void the order and continue the tenancy. If the tenant does not make the required payment, they must vacate the unit and pay $13,257.20 in rent arrears and application fees, plus daily compensation of $18.08 from March 16, 2023 until the date they move out.
