Order under Section 69 Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 Citation: Cogir Management Corporation GP v D., 2023 ONLTB 52266 2023 ONLTB 52266 (CanLII) Date: 2023-07-25 File Number: LTB-L-022524-23 In the matter of: 2008, 190 LEES AVE OTTAWA ON K1S5L5 Between: Cogir Management Corporation GP Landlord And I.D. Tenant Cogir Management Corporation GP (the 'Landlord') applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict I.D. (the 'Tenant') because the Tenant did not pay the rent that the Tenant owes. This application was heard by videoconference on July 17, 2023. Only the Landlord’s Legal Representative Phylicia Thomas attended the hearing. As of 10:23 a.m., the Tenant was not present or represented at the hearing although properly served with notice of this hearing by the LTB. There was no record of a request to adjourn the hearing. Since the Tenant did not attend and the Landlord was prepared to proceed, the matter proceeded by way of an uncontested hearing pursuant to section 7 of the Statutory Powers Procedure Act, R.S.O. 1990. Determinations: 1. At the hearing the Landlord’s Legal Representative relied on oral submissions and referred to documents to support their application. 2. The Landlord served the Tenant with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice). The Tenant did not void the notice by paying the amount of rent arrears owing by the termination date in the N4 Notice or before the date the application was filed. 3. As of the hearing date, the Tenant was still in possession of the rental unit. 4. The lawful rent is $1,402.95. It is due on the 1st day of each month. 5. Based on the Monthly rent, the daily rent/compensation is $46.12. This amount is calculated as follows: $1,402.95 x 12, divided by 365 days. 6. The Tenant has paid $6,812.00 to the Landlord since the application was filed. 7. The rent arrears owing to July 31, 2023 are $2,801.47. Order Page 1 of 4  File Number: LTB-L-022524-23 8. The Landlord incurred costs of $186.00 for filing the application and is entitled to reimbursement of those costs. 9. The Landlord is no longer holding a last month’s rent deposit as it was applied to the monthly rent for July 2023. 2023 ONLTB 52266 (CanLII) 10. I have considered all of the disclosed circumstances in accordance with subsection 83(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the 'Act'), including whether the Landlord attempted to negotiate a payment agreement with the Tenant. The Landlord submitted that ongoing efforts were made to contact the Tenant to discuss a payment agreement, but the Tenant did not respond. I asked the Landlord if they were aware of any circumstances the Tenant may be experiencing that would make eviction unfair and they were aware of none. I find it would be unfair to grant relief from eviction pursuant to subsection 83(1) of the Act. It is ordered that: 1. The tenancy between the Landlord and the Tenant is terminated unless the Tenant voids this order. 2. The Tenant may void this order and continue the tenancy by paying to the Landlord or to the LTB in trust:  $2,987.47 if the payment is made on or before July 31, 2023. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. OR  $4,390.42 if the payment is made on or before August 5, 2023. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. 3. The Tenant may also make a motion at the LTB to void this order under section 74(11) of the Act, if the Tenant has paid the full amount owing as ordered plus any additional rent that became due after August 5, 2023 but before the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) enforces the eviction. The Tenant may only make this motion once during the tenancy. 4. If the Tenant does not pay the amount required to void this order the Tenant must move out of the rental unit on or before August 5, 2023 5. If the Tenant does not void the order, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord $2,368.56. This amount includes rent arrears owing up to the date of the hearing and the cost of filing the application. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. 6. The Tenant shall also pay the Landlord compensation of $46.12 per day for the use of the unit starting July 18, 2023 until the date the Tenant moves out of the unit. 7. If the Tenant does not pay the Landlord the full amount owing on or before August 5, 2023, the Tenant will start to owe interest. This will be simple interest calculated from August 6, 2023 at 6.00% annually on the balance outstanding. 8. If the unit is not vacated on or before August 5, 2023, then starting August 6, 2023, the Landlord may file this order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) so that the eviction may be enforced.
