It never ceases to amaze me how few owners take the time to attend their Strata's Annual General Meeting (AGM). Attendance at the typical Vancouver condo AGM runs at about 40 or 50%. Some pretty important matters can get voted on at your AGM including the passing of some pretty extensive and expensive special levies. I just had a case where the strata passed a $40,000 special assessment for each owner and they only got about 40% of the owners to turn up and vote! If you can't make your AGM in person you can simply fill out a proxy to cast your vote. Remember you have no right to complain about how your complex is being managed if you don't take the 90 min each year to simply show up at your AGM.
