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 not present at the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective November 2, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $5,470.63, which includes rent arrears up to October 22, 2021 and charges related to NSF cheques, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $23.01 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting October 23, 2021 until the Tenant moves out, and $186.00 for the application filing fee. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by November 2, 2021, the Tenant will owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by November 2, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement.
