So, the board has once again pulled a rabbit out of their dusty magician’s hat: no hybrid format for the townhall. Not Zoom, not Teams, not even a tin can with string. Nothing.
And why? Oh, they’ll mumble something about “costs” or “technical challenges.” But let’s be real: the real “challenge” is landlords showing up, asking uncomfortable questions, and reminding everyone that owners outside the building actually exist.
Hybrid meetings are standard in 2025. My dentist offers them. My dog trainer offers them. Heck, even bingo night at the seniors’ home streams online. But apparently, for our multi-million-dollar condo corporation, the technology is just too “advanced.”
Funny coincidence, isn’t it? The fewer landlords who attend, the easier it is for the board to posture as if they’ve got unanimous support from the handful of residents they haven’t alienated yet.
This isn’t oversight. This is by design. A deliberate shrinking of the audience – because smaller crowds mean fewer dissenting voices.
🪞 Owners, look in the mirror
If you let them get away with this, don’t complain when the board pretends “everyone” agreed with their next bright idea. Because the people who weren’t invited to the show don’t count in their script.
