What happened

Landlord 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 was still in possession of the rental unit on the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant pays $14,690.00 to void the order and continue the tenancy, or $13,693.80 if the tenancy is terminated. The Tenant must also pay daily compensation of $30.35 starting March 29, 2023 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the required amount by April 24, 2023, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office for enforcement.
