Interesting stats from the CAO. Did you know that there are only about 400 registered condominium management firms in Ontario?

At BPM, we always try to be fair, reasonable, and conciliatory with any owner's request. Situations like the one described below are preventable with proper and appropriate behavior from both the managing firm and the individual condominium unit owner. Working together is always better.

In condominium management, our approach to rule enforcement is always grounded in fairness, consistency, and a willingness to work with owners to find reasonable solutions. That said, there are situations where clear decisions are not accepted, and matters are pursued repeatedly despite prior findings and opportunities to comply. In those cases, the process must run its course, and this recent decision serves as a reminder that persistence alone does not outweigh established rules, evidence, or due process.

We've certainly had our share of winter issues so far this year. Salt shortages, excessive snowfall requiring relocation, and even a 6-figure insurance claim due to ice damming!

Its been a snowy week! ❄️
Condo corporations are responsible for clearing snow and ice from roads, sidewalks, and stairs within a reasonable time; but heavier snowfall can affect these timelines. This is a good time to check in on neighbours who may need extra support, whether that’s help getting around safely or picking up essentials. Check your governing documents for details on snow removal responsibilities.

Can confirm.

Numbers from London police show 47 vehicles crashed into buildings in both the years 2023 and 2024, and 50 by October 2025.
