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 ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective April 30, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $3,487.25, which includes rent arrears up to April 19, 2021 and the application filing fee, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $26.88 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting April 20, 2021 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by April 30, 2021, the Tenant will start to owe interest. If the unit is not vacated by April 30, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office for eviction. The Tenant can void the eviction order by paying $4,833.49 on or before April 30, 2021.
