What happened

The Landlord applied for eviction and termination of tenancy due to significant rent arrears. The Tenants attempted to raise maintenance issues at the hearing, but these were dismissed due to a lack of prior disclosure. The Tenants cited financial hardship and community ties to request a delay in eviction.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective January 31, 2026, unless the Tenants pay the full arrears to void the order. The Tenants are ordered to pay $10,537.15 to the Landlord immediately if they do not void the order, accounting for arrears, the application fee, and deducting the rent deposit and interest. Daily compensation of $105.21 applies from December 2, 2025, until the unit is vacated.
