What happened

Landlords 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 had not vacated the rental unit by the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective January 15, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlords $19,736.21, which includes rent arrears up to January 4, 2021 and NSF cheque charges, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $78.74 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting January 5, 2021 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by January 15, 2021, the Tenant will start owing interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by January 15, 2021, the Landlords may file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
