Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Expulsion Policy

[Heather Laing (hlaing]

What is the difference between a condo and a coop in Ontario, Canada?
        In a co-operative, a corporate entity owns the lands and structures 
thereon including each of the individual units in the building. A purchaser in 
a co-operative buys shares in the corporation, whereas a purchaser in a 
condominium  purchases and is deeded a specific dwelling or condo unit.

If, as I expect,  you are a Condominium Community and not a Co-op, check with 
these people as to your rights: https://www.condoauthorityontario.ca/.  Here 
https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/98c19 you will find the Ontario Condominium 
Act and Regulations under the Condominium Act.

These resources will give you information, but I agree that you would be wise 
to contact a lawyer to determine under what circumstance and after what 
process, you might be able to force an owner of one of your condominium units 
to sell.

Subject: [C-L]_ Expulsion Policy

Hello! We are Kawartha Commons Cohousing, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.  We 
are intending to draft an Expulsion Policy in case we have to deal with a 
member who is destructive of our community, and in case all less extreme 
efforts to mitigate the problem have been exhausted. It will probably be 
extremely helpful to see how other cohousing communities have approached this.  
Do any of your communities have such a policy that you would be willing to 
share?  Thanking you in advance, Arthur
