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 is terminated effective February 1, 2022. The tenant must pay the landlord $4,672.87, which includes rent arrears, compensation, and application costs, less the rent deposit and interest. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by February 1, 2022, the tenant will owe interest and the landlord may file the order for enforcement of the eviction.
