The RCMP will come to the property and remove the people on the basis of trespassing. Bailiffs, not the RCMP or Sheriffs, carry out judgements of the court and can be hired to repossess property.

You're post made me curious and this is what I found about sheriffs and bailiffs in terms of their job titles (although it might vary by geographical region):
Sheriffs and Bailiffs - Service Canada

They just got removed from the property today. Strata will try to sell property to recoup legal costs.

so they lose the house and will still owe the bank money for the mortgage? Hopefully going bankrupt was worth a parking space!!

multicartual 06-16-2014 04:39 PM

Those fucking cocksuckers on the strata should have just had a heart and given the old chinese man a visitor parking spot.


People who are on strata councils are 99% likely to be complete fucking assholes

I'd imagine that the leinholder on the house gets first dibs to any money gained from the sale. Given that most people have at least SOME equity in their house.. the mortgage should get paid off and the left overs go to the strata.

falcon 06-16-2014 04:41 PM

Looks like you didn't read the article, watch the video OR read any of the comments from people who are on that strata in the comment section. This man has been a pain and nuisance for everyone around him for years. He got what he deserved.

I'm not a fan of strata councils but this guy was totally in the wrong. He tossed the middle finger up and parked in the visitors spot with no regard to how it impacted anyone around him. He then went on to keep suing the strata with no real just cause and cost everyone else who owns there money. It sucks he's losing his place but he brought it on himself so it's hard for me to feel bad for him.

multicartual 06-16-2014 05:32 PM

It's just one fucking parking spot!!! Let the old man have it, shit!


Certainly the strata could have worked with him. How much did he spend, $173,000?


Imagine if both parties decided he could just pay $100 extra a month to strata for the spot, or perhaps used 10k of his own money to buy it out, or something?


Fuck it's just one parking spot, why all this drama for everyone involved?

It was because of their blatent disregard for the strata bylaws. Instead of complying, he decided to run them through the ringer with lawsuit after lawsuit. You can't expect anyone to abide by strata bylaws if they started making concessions willy-nilly. They're there for a reason.

Don't know about that particular complex, but in my apartment building there is only about 10 visitor parking stalls for the 45 odd strata lots. If I needed an additional parking spot I had the option to purchase one during the pre-sale of my condo. The cost was 40k.

Now maybe 10k is fair for the spot, and maybe $100 a month is fair, but maybe they only had a limited amount of stalls, and wanted them available for everyone to use when they had family over, and not just owned by one person. That is after all why visitors stalls exist. So that they maybe shared and used fairly between all strata lots.

This world doesn't revolve around singular people who are annoying enough, or thick-headed enough to just do whatever they want. I am happy this strata council stood their ground, and I am happy they got rid of their asshole of a neighbor.

Needless to say I know you won't understand any of this, because anyone who isn't a free spirit like you, is just a 9-5 drone, who has to live by the rules and can never have any fun. I also know you know absolutely nothing about Stratas and being a good neighbor after that other thread you made.

hud 91gt 06-16-2014 05:45 PM

Strata's sometimes are a PITA. Mostly because of dick swabs like this couple. I hope they have to sell their house. I'm sure their life has been a living hell from all the other owners in the building since their court hearings have started though.

fliptuner 06-16-2014 06:03 PM

I'm sure a lot of other people in the complex wanted another spot. Maybe they rented them from other people, maybe they parked on the street. These people (Bea's) aren't special.

What if everyone wants another spot? Then what? You can't just sell and rent a spot to this guy coz he wants it. Hell I want 1 million dollars from my job every pay cheque too.

There are only a number of visitor parking for EVERYONE to use. Not for him only. My sister and her husband is looking for an apartment now. Guess what, they have 3 cars so they are looking for apartments with 2 parking and hopefully park the 3rd on the street. Is call consumer awareness and being smart. If anyone tries to park at my parking spot I will have their car tow in no time. Need an extra spot? Buy one or park on the streets.

with condo prices the way they are i'm sure selling the condo will cover all legal costs and then some

i would but that would suck, having to sell your house to cover court costs over something so stupid.

Wow. A quarter-million dollar lesson for a stubborn selfish dumb ass.

I want to laugh at his misfortune directly to his face.

Yeah but after they just gave him a stall you bet your ass everyone else would have wanted one as well.

I'm not sure if you have read any of the articles, but three visitor spots were used by him for STORAGE. after receiving numerous strata violation tickets, they refused to pay which by the contract they sign they have to in the end.From then on, it went down hill. And 90% of his interviews are sob stories about him fucking up.
Like your car, you get a ticket and don't pay you end up biting the bullet 5 years later when you renew you licence

Lowered_Klass 06-16-2014 08:50 PM

I feel sorry for the other owners in this building. Not only for having to deal with this man-cunt for the past few years, but because they're ultimately paying the court costs to fight this jerkoff with their strata fees.

When they showed him leaving with 'chest pains' at the end of the news story tonight, I hope they were real. Stubborn piece of shit.

$_$ 06-16-2014 10:03 PM

Can someone explain why, if he sued the strata he didn't need to put up court and lawyer fees upfront? Who was covering all these fees during these 6 years?
