What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to the Tenant substantially interfering with the reasonable enjoyment or lawful right, privilege or interest of the Landlord or another tenant, and the Tenant wilfully or negligently causing damage to the premises. The Landlord claimed compensation for the cost to repair the damaged property.

The ruling

The Landlord's application is granted. The tenancy is terminated effective July 21, 2024. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $4,463.50 for the cost of replacing the damaged property and $186 for the application filing fee. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by July 21, 2024, the Tenant will owe interest starting July 22, 2024 at 7% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by July 21, 2024, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office for enforcement.
