Condos And Cannabis—Human Rights Considerations

Condominium living comes with its own set of advantages – and disadvantages. As the old saying goes – you can choose your friends, but you can't choose your...neighbors?

Purchasing a condo is a big step for many people and we are encouraged to do our due diligence to ensure it is a comfortable home for many years into the future. For example, you may have purchased a condo specifically in a building that does not allow smoking. At the time, the only legal option for "smoking" likely included tobacco products.

So what happens when the rules change? The legalization of cannabis brought a number of new challenges to condo living, particularly in light of the medicinal applications of cannabis and the somewhat untested requirements of using cannabis for "medicinal use".
