📍 Pickering, Ontario
Landlord applied to terminate tenancy and evict Tenant for non-payment of rent arrears totalling $10,000.00 as of March 31, 2026.
Tenant requested proceedings in French under the French Language Services Act; matter transferred to a bilingual Member.
Rent was $2,500/month until March 31, 2026, lawfully increased to $2,600/month effective April 1, 2026 via N2 Notice served December 29, 2025.
Tenant occupies the unit with two minor children and cited loss of child support and family health emergencies abroad as causes of financial hardship.
Tenant's proposed repayment plan was rejected as unsubstantiated and financially unviable given income/expense ratio.
Eviction postponed to June 30, 2026, to minimize impact on children's school term and allow Tenant time to find housing or financial assistance.
Landlord holds a last month's rent deposit of $1,950.00; interest of $214.30 accrued from February 21, 2020 to March 25, 2026.
N4 Notice was validly served and Tenant did not void it by paying arrears before the application was filed.
Rent was lawfully increased to $2,600.00 as of April 1, 2026, following proper N2 Notice served December 29, 2025, per sections 116 and 6.1 of the RTA.
Tenant's repayment proposal was rejected: no supporting financial documents provided, no payments made since filing, and proposed plan would result in expenses exceeding income.
Relief from eviction granted only to the extent of postponing the eviction deadline to June 30, 2026, under subsection 83(1)(b) of the RTA.
Rent deposit of $1,950.00 and interest of $214.30 deducted from total amount owed, resulting in net judgment of $7,558.70 if tenancy is terminated.
Tenancy terminated unless Tenant voids the order by paying $12,786.00 by April 30, 2026; $15,386.00 by May 31, 2026; or $17,986.00 by June 30, 2026.
