The ruling

The tenancy is terminated, and the Tenant must vacate the rental unit by October 18, 2021. If the unit is not vacated, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office for enforcement. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $838.21 for the cost of repairing the damage and $186 for the application filing fee. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by October 31, 2021, they will owe simple interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance.
