What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to Tenant refusing entry to the unit. The Landlord also claimed compensation for each day the Tenant remained in the unit after the termination date.

The ruling

The Landlord's application is dismissed. The Landlord failed to provide proper written notice of entry as required by the Residential Tenancies Act, and the Tenant was within her rights to refuse entry due to the improper notice.
