In the matter of: 302, 233 DURAND ST
SARNIA ON N7T5A5
Between: Promar Investments c/o Elite Property Group (2018) Inc. Landlord
And
Justine Schramek Tenant
Promar Investments c/o Elite Property Group (2018) Inc. (the 'Landlord') applied for an order to
terminate the tenancy and evict Justine Schramek (the 'Tenant') because:
• the Tenant, another occupant of the rental unit or someone the Tenant permitted in the
residential complex has substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment or lawful
right, privilege or interest of the Landlord or another tenant.
The Landlord also claimed compensation for each day the Tenant remained in the unit after the
termination date.
This application was heard by videoconference on February 6, 2023.
Only the Landlord’s legal representative, Melissa Anjema, and the Landlord’s agent, Karen Eckel
attended the hearing.
As of 10:00 AM, 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. As a result, the hearing proceeded with only the Landlord's evidence.
Determinations:
1. As explained below, the Landlord has proven on a balance of probabilities the grounds for
termination of the tenancy. Therefore, the tenancy will terminate.
2. On September 20, 2022, the Landlord gave the Tenant a first, voidable N5 notice of
termination. The notice identified the Tenant yelling and screaming on September 9, 2022
at 5:00 AM and leaving a shopping cart in the hallway of the residential complex on
Order Page 1 of 3
File Number: LTB-L-066833-22
September 9, 2022 at 8:00 PM. Therefore, the Landlord was allowed to give the Tenant a
second, non-voidable N5 notice of termination under section 68 of the Residential
Tenancies Act, 2006 (Act).
3. On October 5, 2022, the Landlord gave the Tenant a second N5 notice of termination. The
2023 ONLTB 20224 (CanLII)
notice of termination contains the following allegations: on October 3, 2022 at 10:10 PM,
the Tenant got into a physical altercation with another resident in the residential complex
resulting in physical injury to the other person and the Tenant yelled and screamed at
other residents in the building after the fight.
4. Based on the uncontested testimony of the Landlord’s agent and the video surveillance
footage of the altercation, I find that the Tenant got into a physical fight with another
person in the lobby of the residential complex and proceeded to yell and scream at other
individuals in the lobby on October 3, 2022.
5. This conduct has substantially interfered with the Landlord's and other tenants' reasonable
enjoyment of the residential complex.
6. The Tenant was required to pay the Landlord $4,890.41 in daily compensation for use and
occupation of the rental unit for the period from October 11, 2022 to February 6, 2023.
7. Based on the Monthly rent, the daily compensation is $41.10. This amount is calculated as
follows: $1,250.00 x 12, divided by 365 days.
8. The Landlord incurred costs of $186.00 for filing the application and is entitled to
reimbursement of those costs.
9. The Landlord collected a rent deposit of $1,250.00 from the Tenant and this deposit is still
being held by the Landlord. Interest on the rent deposit, in the amount of $17.12 is owing
to the Tenant for the period from July 22, 2022 to February 6, 2023 .
10. In accordance with subsection 106(10) of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006, (the ‘Act')
the last month's rent deposit shall be applied to the rent for the last month of the tenancy.
11. I have considered all of the disclosed circumstances in accordance with subsection 83(2)
of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the 'Act'), and find that 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. The Tenant must move
out of the rental unit on or before February 25, 2023.
2. If the unit is not vacated on or before February 25, 2023, then starting February 26, 2023,
the Landlord may file this order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) so that the
eviction may be enforced.
3. Upon receipt of this order, the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) is directed to give vacant
possession of the unit to the Landlord on or after February 26, 2023.
4. The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord $3,623.29, which represents compensation for the
use of the unit from October 11, 2022 to February 6, 2023, less the rent deposit and
interest the Landlord owes on the rent deposit. If the Tenant made any payments to the
Order Page 2 of 3
File Number: LTB-L-066833-22
Landlord with respect to this period of time, the Landlord shall deduct the payments from
the amount owing.
5. The Tenant shall also pay the Landlord compensation of $41.10 per day for the use of the
unit starting February 7, 2023 until the date the Tenant moves out of the unit.
2023 ONLTB 20224 (CanLII)
6. The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord $186.00 for the cost of filing the application.
