History

The British Columbia Strata Property Act (SPA) came into force on July 1, 2000. Since then there has been massive growth in the number and diversity of strata properties. Many problems have arisen in applying the Act to strata issues and in protecting the rights of strata owners. Although the present BC government made a commitment in 2003 to review the SPA it has refused to undertake either a comprehensive review of strata legislation or consult publicly about the legislation that affects over 700,000 strata owners. Instead it passed Bill 8 in 2009 to amend the SPA based on "private and confidential" discussions with real estate industry insiders while ignoring many pressing concerns of strata owners. This website is provided as a resource for strata owners seeking a public review of BC legislation affecting the rights of strata owners.
