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 still in possession of the rental unit on the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant pays $881.15 by April 30, 2023 or $966.15 by May 31, 2023 to void the order. If the Tenant does not pay, they must vacate the unit by May 31, 2023. The Tenant also owes $747.42 in rent arrears and application fees, plus daily compensation of $2.79 from March 14, 2023 until move-out.
