What happened

The Landlord applied for termination of tenancy and eviction due to non-payment of rent. During the hearing, the N4 notice was found to be invalid because the rent arrears calculation on the notice did not match the Landlord's own ledger. The Landlord subsequently requested an arrears-only order. The Tenant contested the arrears, alleging an illegal rent increase and raising various maintenance issues (section 82), including floods and snow removal concerns.

The ruling

The application for eviction was denied as the N4 notice was found to be invalid. However, the Landlord was granted an arrears-only order. The Tenant is ordered to pay $1,057.27 to the Landlord by November 1, 2025, which represents rent arrears and the application filing fee. The Tenant's cross-claims for maintenance were dismissed.
