They lost in court. Twice.
They drained the reserve.
They refuse to step down.
And now, they’ve left me no choice.
I will be filing an application under Section 131 of the Condominium Act, 1998, asking the Ontario Superior Court to appoint a neutral administrator to take over the governance of WNCC 37.
This is not a decision I take lightly. But it is one I take seriously – because continuing under this board is no longer sustainable.
⚖️ What Is Section 131?
Section 131 allows the court to step in and replace the board with a court-appointed administrator if the board is not properly carrying out its duties.
It is a last-resort remedy – and we are now there.
💥 How We Got Here
💸 Financial Mismanagement
- Over $300,000 spent on legal fees to fight and lose a case involving a resident’s service dog.
- An unauthorized appeal launched with no owner consultation or vote – a breach of s. 23(2)(b).
- Operating fund running a deficit, with funds borrowed from the reserve just to stay afloat.
🕵️♀️ Secrecy and Denial
- They failed to notify owners before launching the litigation.
- They failed to notify owners after losing – twice.
- They admit they don’t want residents to know who they are – while making decisions on our behalf.
😡 Harassment and Retaliation
- My family and I were subjected to discrimination and hostile treatment.
- I was told, as a director, that I must “agree with everything they say,” or I didn’t belong.
- And yes – I was defamed. False and damaging statements were made about me in written communications. These weren’t mere disagreements – they were character attacks, circulated to others, without truth or apology.
- This is not responsible governance. It’s targeted abuse carried out under corporate letterhead.
- My partner was verbally attacked at an AGM while directors sat silently.
🚪 Dysfunction and Resignation
- Two board members quit before their first meeting.
- Remaining directors cling to power, despite a complete collapse in credibility.
💰 And Yes – It Will Be Expensive
Let’s be honest:
A Section 131 application is not cheap. It involves court filings, legal counsel, hearings, and time.
Yes, it will be expensive.
And yes – those costs will fall to the corporation, which means the owners.
That is deeply unfair. But we are no longer in a position to choose between “expensive” and “free.”
We are choosing between:
- Expensive but lawful reform, or
- Ongoing, unchecked dysfunction with a blank cheque.
They caused this. They escalated it.
And now they’re refusing to fix it.
We didn’t ask for this mess – but we’ll be the ones who clean it up. Because that’s what responsible owners do when the board stops acting like one.
And yes – they’ve left you to foot the bill.
But they’re the ones who wrote the cheque.
🧯 Why I’m Proceeding Anyway
Because this cannot continue.
Because silence is not an option.
Because letting them remain in power means more lawsuits, more secrecy, and more damage.
This is not about politics. It’s about protecting our home, our family, our finances, and our dignity.
They were given every opportunity to do the right thing.
They refused.
So now the court must step in.
