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 voids the order by paying $8,666 by February 28, 2023 or $9,266 by March 31, 2023. If the Tenant does not void the order, the Tenant must pay $7,781.68 to the Landlord and compensation of $19.73 per day starting January 17, 2023 until the Tenant moves out. The Tenant is given until March 31, 2023 to either void the order or find a new unit.
