What happened
Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant because the Landlord requires possession of the rental unit for the purpose of residential occupation. The Landlords also claimed compensation for each day the Tenant remained in the unit after the termination date.
The ruling
The application is dismissed. The Tenant's right to security of tenure outweighs the Landlord's interest in the property, given the Tenant's long-term tenancy and the impact of the pandemic on his income.
