What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to Tenant substantially interfering with the reasonable enjoyment or lawful right, privilege or interest of the Landlords in a residential complex that has three or fewer residential units. Landlords also applied for an order requiring the Tenant to compensate them for damage to the rental unit and for each day the Tenant remained in the unit after the termination date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective December 10, 2020. The Tenant must move out by that date and pay the Landlords $6,909.20, which includes compensation for use of the unit, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. If the Tenant does not pay by December 10, 2020, they will owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by December 10, 2020, the Landlords may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office for enforcement.
