📑 Findings & determinations

Landlord served a valid N4 Notice; Tenant failed to void it by paying arrears before the application filing date.
As of the hearing date, Tenant remained in possession of the rental unit.
Lawful monthly rent is $1,900.00, due on the 1st of each month; daily rate is $62.47.
Rent arrears to November 30, 2025 total $11,400.00; no payments made since application was filed.
Landlord holds a $1,900.00 rent deposit; interest of $58.69 accrued from September 1, 2024 to November 25, 2025.
It would be unfair to grant relief from eviction under s.83(1) of the RTA given the circumstances and Tenant's absence.
