By royal proclamation dated April 13, 2011, the Ontario Government announced that the Public Inquiries Act, 2009 will come into force on June 1, 2011. This act was one of the many hundreds of relatively minor legislative initiatives rolled into the behemoth omnibus bill known as the Good Government Act, 2009, parts of which have been coming into force since January 2010.

With the coming into force of the Public Inquiries Act, 2009, more than 50 Ontario statues will be slightly amended to make reference to this new act and delete references to the old act. Among those affected statutes is the Condominium Act, 1998, where amendments in relation to the powers of an inspector in section 130 will come into force on June 1 this year. We reported on these specific changes to the Condo Act in an entry dated December 21, 2009 under the heading “Powers of an Inspector.”

I attended the recent annual general meeting of the Association of Condominium Managers of Ontario (“ACMO”). While those meetings are normally attended exclusively by condominium managers, the board invited me to assist them with any legal or procedural matters that might arise. While nothing exciting developed that required legal intervention, the meeting was very well attended and the election to fill vacancies on the ACMO board was especially noteworthy.
