What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants 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 tenants did not void by paying the arrears.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated effective October 1, 2020. The Tenants must pay $1,584.46 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to September 8, 2020 and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. The Tenants must also pay $21.21 per day for compensation for use of the unit from September 9, 2020 until they move out. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount by October 1, 2020, they will start owing interest and the Landlord can file the order for enforcement.
