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 of Termination, which the tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The tenant had not paid the full rent from April 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective January 19, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $11,800.46, which includes rent arrears, NSF cheque charges, and application filing costs, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $53.54 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting January 9, 2021 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by January 19, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement.
