^^ thanks for the info but they basically said because I pay for it the parking spot is consider mine so I have the right tow it.
My guess atm nothing is set in stone or strata is from yet so things are in the grey area. They most likely don't want any towing to happen again if possible at least till everything is set in stone. But in the mean time things like this will happen and people (like me) will complain till something is done. I was basically saying if someone can park at my spot without them doing a thing then I can do the same because they(the management compnay) chose to ignore my complains and clearly the person who park at my spot is in the wrong. I also question them what's the point of having a parking spot and paying for it when I can park at someone else parking spot without having my care tow or any fees?

I just don't get how and why these people think they can just park anywhere they want in a condo parking lot. They know everyone needs to purchase a parking spot and assigned one. There's visitor parking. But they think they are special enough to get that sweet spot beside the door and get away with it.
I'd tow those bitches and demand rent money back for parking in my spot.

If one of the people who is towed complains to the City of Burnaby the Strata could be subject to multiple Bylaw Notices. The tow truck company that conducts the tow would be subject to multiple bylaw notices as well.
I encourage you to speak to the Strata to reach out to the City of Burnaby in order to place the proper signage and be in full compliance with the City Bylaws so that you are able to tow unauthorized vehicles from the parking lot of your apartment building.
I would contact the City of Burnaby Licence Office, their number is (604) 294-7320. They administer the Burnaby Towing & Immobilization Bylaw.
I would also have the strata contact Mundies Towing in order to establish a contract and proper signage throughout the parking lot so that you can legally tow vehicles that are illegally parked in the apartment building parking lot.

Thanks I will let them know and hopefully they get their act together. Not to be rude but so far I only notice Asian that does this. There are other people and they seem to park at their own parking spot.

I kinda can relate to the OP to some degree, but I own a house and last few months, one of my neighbours rented their suite to some tenants and they have so many cars parked outside at a given time. Most of the houses only park one car outside in their front, but this asshole neighbour has tenants and including the landlord have 6 cars parked outside in front of other peoples homes.
I asked them nicely when they moved in, to not park in front of house, it would be great to just leave me a spot in front of my house as my neighbours get pissed when I park in front of their house. I don't want to create any trouble with neighbours since they are older folks and don't want it to seem like I am picking on elders. They were like cool with it and now fast forward few months later, parking in front of my house. I can be a dick and call 311 and ticket their ass because they leave their car parked for extended periods of time in front of my house (3hr limit bylaw).
No parking for those tenants? Well that's too bad, not my problem. Life ain't fair LOL. Sorry went off-topic, my experience not related to towing haha

Get some tire dolly's and just push it somewhere randomly.. People will start getting the hint or towed by strata for "parking" weird.
