Back in 2015, the Protecting Condominium Owners Act
became law in Ontario. It was the culmination of over 200
recommendations and represented the province's first major
reformation of condo law in 16 years.
Implementing the new provisions has been slow, but one component
is now in place: the establishment of the new Condominium Authority
of Ontario (CAO). Its formation is a step forward in providing
trainng for condo directors, better transparency and increased
protection for condo buyers.
Training And Information Hub
One of the CAO's mandates is to provide information and
education for both owners and directors. The CAO website houses consumer
information on a variety of condo-related topics including condo
living, owners' rights and responsibilities, rules and by-laws,
condo governance and dispute resolution.
