Condominium Manager Magazine

CM Magazine is the flagship quarterly publication of the Association of Condominium Managers of Ontario (ACMO) and for more than 30 years has served as the leading source of in-depth coverage of industry news, issues, information, education and best practices for condominium management professionals and service providers.

CM Magazine has a printed circulation of 7,000+ per issue and a digital circulation of approximately 400 views per issue.  The audience consists of Condominium Managers, Condominium Management Companies, Industry Services & Trades Providers, and Condominium Boards. 

Article submission is not open to the general public. ACMO members in good standing may contribute articles. From time to time we will reach out to the broader condominium industry and request articles from non-members and other industry experts (e.g. government partners, educational partners, legal experts), if the subject matter requires a distinctive perspective that cannot be addressed by an individual ACMO member or company.

Navigating the Shifting Regulatory Landscape

Legal and Regulatory Insights

Message from the Executive Director || Katherine Gow, RCM

Condoland is a great place to live and work. This simple fact can quickly and easily be forgotten when managers are confronted with endless regulatory changes, new workplace expectations, and poor support. Those who stay in Condoland as professionally licensed Condominium Managers take pride in their role as servant leaders. Condominium managers are the stewards of Ontario’s most densely populated communities, and the regulatory environment that governs their work is evolving rapidly. 
ACMO is your voice in a regulatory wasteland, filled with well-intentioned legislation that suffers from unintended consequences. We champion the pragmatic reality that no additional hours can be added to a day and that priorities must be selected and juggled.

The Lasting Opportunities of Normal

Message from the Executive Director || Paul B. MacDonald

The so-called ‘new normal’ thrust on us by the pandemic is anything but normal. The pandemic is unprecedented and came with challenges most of us were ill-prepared to deal with.

The New Normal Virtual World

Message from the Executive Director || Paul B. MacDonald

Just because we are in lockdown does not mean we have stopped learning, connecting, educating, and advocating. We are just doing it in different ways, virtually.
