No spin. No jokes. Just what owners need to know – and what you must do next.
📉 What Has Happened (Documented)
- The corporation has spent hundreds of thousands on outside legal fees defending indefensible decisions.
- The board has borrowed from the reserve fund and approved large projects without transparent tendering or clear budgets.
- Special assessments and surprise charges have appeared with little notice or explanation.
- Meeting minutes reveal selective enforcement of rules – some owners punished, others protected.
- Attempts at transparency (townhalls, requisitions, written questions) have been shut down or stonewalled.
💰 Why This Matters (Real Consequences)
- Legal overspending drains the operating fund and forces new assessments.
- Poor governance erodes buyer confidence and lowers property values.
- Opaque decisions mean you’re paying for things you don’t understand or approve.
- Every dollar wasted is your dollar – taken from your investment and your home.
🚫 What the Board Won’t Do on Its Own
- Admit mismanagement or reverse poor decisions.
- Change voluntarily – unless owners force it.
🧭 What You Can Do (Starting Now)
- Attend the next AGM or special meeting – quorum and votes matter.
- Vote them out. Anyone defending secrecy doesn’t deserve your trust or your proxy.
- Support transparency candidates. Back owners who demand accountability.
- Requisition a meeting if answers are refused – the Act gives you that right.
- Request records in writing and keep copies of every reply (or refusal).
- Run for the board if you’re qualified – competence starts with participation.
- Document everything. Paper trails win cases.
⚠️ Final Word – Blunt and True
If you sleepwalk through the next election, you are not a victim – you’re a volunteer in your own undoing.
By keeping this board in power, you’re choosing:
- continued secrecy,
- continued legal waste,
- continued special assessments, and
- a declining property value.
🕰 Wake up. Show up. Vote. Run. Demand transparency.
Because if you don’t – you’ve signed your own fate and ruin and there is no hope for this community.
