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 at the time of the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 29, 2023 unless the Tenant pays $10,246.80 to void the order and continue the tenancy. If the Tenant does not pay the amount, the Tenant must move out by October 29, 2023 and pay the Landlord $6,631.64, plus daily compensation of $70.77 from October 11, 2023 until the Tenant moves out.
