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 had resided in the rental unit for about four years and fell into arrears due to the pandemic.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated effective November 15, 2020. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $7,535.53, which represents the rent arrears and costs, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $38.33 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting October 15, 2020 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by October 25, 2020, the Tenant will start to owe interest. If the unit is not vacated by November 15, 2020, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office for enforcement.
