You stay liable for the rent covering your notice period or the remaining contract term. The landlord can keep or claim against your deposit, cash outstanding cheques, and pursue the balance at the Rental Dispute Centre. Always give written notice - typically 90 days before expiry to avoid automatic renewal, or per your contract's early-exit clause - to limit your liability.
