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 on the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant pays the full amount owing by the specified deadlines to void the order. If the Tenant does not void the order, the Tenant must move out by July 15, 2023 and pay the Landlord $19,297.62, which includes rent arrears and the application filing fee, minus the rent deposit and interest.
