Like Little Towns. In speaking with friends who serve on municipal Councils and Boards, I am struck by the utter disbelief they display upon hearing of the lack of accountability of our Boards of Directors and Property Management Companies and of the baffling lack of "enforcement" on the part of the Ontario Government. Each and every one, without exception, has stated that if the antics of some Directors, Officers and Property Managers of some condominium Corporations were to occur in the sphere of "municipal governance", those responsible would be facing the scrutiny of the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, the Ministry of the Attorney General and investigations by provincial auditors and regional and provincial police services.

The Government would surely spare no resources or expense in bringing those responsible for such actions to account for their negligent, incompetent and perhaps even criminal behaviour.

We have towns in this Province with smaller populations than many individual Ontario condominium Corporations yet the Government has consistently refused to acknowledge that the rights of unit Owners (taxpayers) to good governance and fiscal accountability are worthy of the same standard of protection and enforcement of the law as those of other taxpayers in Ontario.
