British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Chmielewski v. The Owners, Strata Plan EPS4425, 2020 BCCRT 1376 (CanLII):

20. Under section 72 of the Strata Property Act (SPA), the strata is responsible for repair and maintenance of the common property parkade ramp. However, the standard of care is not perfection. Courts have held that strata corporations must act reasonably in the circumstances (Weir v. The Owners, Strata Plan NW 17, 2010 BCSC 784).
