The Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery and Procurement is seeking feedback on several proposed amendments to the Condo Act that are intended to strengthen consumer protection, enhance transparency, and improve access to information. Submissions are due by September 30, 2026.
The Ministry is also proposing regulatory amendments to:
1) Ontario Regulation 48/01 (General) under the Condo Act to set out the operational requirements needed to support the new legislative provisions once they come into force.
2) Ontario Regulations 180/17, 377/17, 114/18 and 428/19 that would remove regulatory provisions related to PCOA provisions that were automatically revoked on December 31, 2025.
The proposal would make changes related to:
- Status certificates;
- Disclosure statements provided to purchasers;
- Cancellation of purchase agreements (material changes);
- Developer turnover meetings;
- Condo performance audits;
- Waiving remedies against developers;
- Clarifying the right to damages; and
- Records access.
If approved, the changes would come into effect on December 31, 2026.
