Condominium Authority of Ontario

Yes! The CAT's practice direction says that AI can be a helpful tool for research or preparing documents for your Condominium Authority Tribunal case, but keep in mind: 1. Be Cautious – AI tools can make mistakes, especially with legal issues. Verify all information. 2. Use reliable sources – Always cross-check legal references with trusted sites like CanLii or the Tribunal’s website. 3. Take responsibility – You are accountable for your submissions, even if AI helped prepare them. ⚠️ Remember: If you use generative AI make sure to mention it and specify which tool you used in your documents. Misuse of AI could result in dismissal or additional costs. Stay cautious and informed!

Just purchased a new condo with a parking spot and not sure where that parking spot is? 🚗🏢 The unit number and level of your parking spot will be listed in your ownership transfer documents. If it's not clear from those documents, make sure to check that information against the condo’s plan, which your lawyer usually gets from the land registry office when preparing your closing. #CondoLiving #Ontario #CAOCommunity

📢 Attention Condo Owners! Condominium corporations organize both owners’ meetings and board meetings. But remember - owners can only attend board meetings by invitation! Owners who want to stay informed should make sure to attend all owners’ meetings instead. The Condo Act requires that corporations send owners a notice 15 days before the meeting and another preliminary notice 20 days before that. Notices will outline meeting details and topics and can be delivered by mail, directly to your unit, or virtually if you’ve provided your email. Ask your corporation if you prefer a paper notice! Stay engaged and informed—your voice matters. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/3Cba9FZ #CondoLiving #CAOCommunity #Ontario
