The Condominium Authority of Ontario (CAO) has appointed Kate Lamb as the new Chief Executive Officer and Registrar, effective June 1, 2026.

Lamb joins the CAO from a federal professional regulator, where she served as interim president and CEO. She began her career as a lawyer then moved into senior leadership roles over the last 15 years. Lamb is said to bring a transparent and compassionate leadership style that values stakeholder relationships and service excellence.

“I am honoured to join the Condominium Authority of Ontario at such an important moment for the sector,” she said. “Ontario’s condominium communities deserve clear information, strong protections, and accessible dispute resolution. I look forward to working with the Board, staff, the Ministry, and our many partners to build on the CAO’s strong foundation and to continue earning the trust of the people we serve.”

In her role, Lamb will lead the CAO in delivering its mandate under the Condo Act. This includes providing information, resources and access to Ontario’s public condo registry, as well as mandatory training to condo board directors, while supporting the operations of the Condominium Authority Tribunal.

“Kate brings a combination of executive leadership, regulatory insight, and genuine commitment to the public interest,” said CAO Chair Allison Scanlan. “The Board is confident that under her leadership, the CAO will continue to deliver high-quality services to Ontario’s condominium communities, strengthen consumer protection, and work collaboratively with government and sector partners as the condominium sector continues to evolve across the province.”
