What happened

The landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenants due to non-payment of rent and the tenants' behavior substantially interfering with the landlord's reasonable enjoyment of the rental complex. The landlord served valid N4 and N5 notices, but the tenants did not void the notices by paying the arrears or facilitating the required hydro inspection.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 16, 2023. The tenants must pay the landlord $23,440.87, which includes rent arrears, unpaid utility costs, and the application filing fee. If the tenants do not pay the full amount by October 16, 2023, they will owe interest, and the landlord can file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement.
