A retaliatory rule that WILL cost you money.
❗👤 WHAT BY-LAW 14 DOES
It bans any owner who:
- filed a complaint 📝
- asserted their rights ⚖️
- took legal action 🏛️
…from running for the board.
👉 In other words:
It punishes owners for standing up for themselves.
⚠️🔥 WHY THIS IS ILLEGAL
Retaliation (“reprisal”) violates:
- ❌ Condominium Act – oppression & bad faith
- ❌ Principles of natural justice
- ❌ Human Rights Code – reprisal
You cannot pass a by-law to target or silence owners.
That is textbook reprisal.
💣💸 WHY THIS CREATES MASSIVE LEGAL RISK
Passing By-law 14 virtually guarantees:
- ⚖️ Oppression applications
- ⚖️ Reprisal claims
- ⚖️ Challenges to election fairness
- ⚖️ Human-rights-based retaliation complaints
And every one of these lawsuits =
💥 corporation pays
💥 owners pay
💥 your fees go up
💥 your reserves shrink
The board does not pay for their mistakes.
YOU DO.
🏚️📉 THE REAL CONSEQUENCE
By-law 14 will appear to every buyer, bank, and realtor as:
“A corporation that punishes owners who speak up.”
This destroys trust, market value, and resale potential.
🛑🗳️ PROTECT YOUR HOME & YOUR MONEY
VOTE NO to By-law 14.
Retaliation has no place in a democratic community.
