Recent Construction Act changes have brought new payment terms to condominium renovations and restorations. Although the changes have been articulated, their impact on condominiums has not been fully digested.

Failure to adjust to the amendments will open condominiums to a codified legal process that favours the contractor. This session will provide a 10-step system to ensure that the board, condominium managers and consultants work together to protect the condominium corporation.
