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 7, 2022. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $3,232.54, which includes rent arrears up to January 27, 2022 and charges related to NSF cheques, less the rent deposit. The Tenant must also pay $27.35 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting January 28, 2022 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by February 7, 2022, the Tenant will start owing interest and the Landlord can file the order for enforcement of the eviction.
