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 March 9, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $14,110.41, which includes rent arrears, NSF cheque charges, and application filing fees, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $59.74 per day in compensation for continued occupancy starting February 27, 2021 until the unit is vacated. If the Tenant pays the full amount owing by March 9, 2021, the eviction order can be voided and the tenancy can continue.
