What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant because the Landlord in good faith requires possession of the rental unit for the purpose of residential occupation for at least one year. The Landlord previously lived in the rental unit but moved out because his work took him to Hamilton, Ontario. However, the Landlord's work is now in London, Ontario which is closer to the rental unit. The Landlord testified that he does not currently have a residence of his own and is bouncing around different family members' homes.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective August 31, 2023. The Tenant must move out of the rental unit on or before August 31, 2023. If the unit is not vacated by that date, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) to enforce the eviction. The Tenant shall also pay the Landlord compensation of $50.54 per day for the use of the unit starting June 2, 2023 until the date the Tenant moves out. The Landlord shall apply the last month's rent deposit to the last month of tenancy and pay the Tenant $94.87 in interest.
