What happened

Landlords 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 will be terminated if the Tenant does not pay $3,785 by April 30, 2023 or $5,168 by May 6, 2023 to void the order. If the Tenant does not void the order, they must pay $1,539.55 to the Landlords and $45.47 per day in compensation until they vacate the unit.
