This application was heard by videoconference on March 13, 2023 at 1:00 pm. Only the Landlord Representative Gail Kukor Lang attended the hearing. As of 1:30 pm, 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.

It is due on the 1st day of each month. 4. Based on the Monthly rent, the daily rent/compensation is $61.55. This amount is calculated as follows: $1,872.00 x 12, divided by 365 days. 5. The Tenant has paid $14,932.00 to the Landlord since the application was filed. 2023 ONLTB 26711 (CanLII) 6. The rent arrears owing to March 31, 2023 are $3,403.00. 7.

Interest on the rent deposit, in the amount of $159.25 is owing to the Tenant for the period from December 1, 2016 to March 13, 2023. 11. I have considered all of the disclosed circumstances in accordance with subsection 83(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the 'Act'), A. find that it would not be unfair to postpone the eviction until April 30, 2023 pursuant to subsection 83(1)(b) of the Act. 12.

It is ordered that: 1. The tenancy between the Landlord A. the Tenant is terminated unless the Tenant voids this order. 2. The Tenant may void this order A. continue the tenancy by paying to the Landlord or to the LTB in trust: • $3,629.00 if the payment is made on or before March 31, 2023.
