The applicant, a condominium unit owner, requested access to audio/video recordings of the corporation's 2022 virtual annual general meeting and various board meetings.
The respondent corporation claimed it did not possess the AGM recording, as it was held by its law firm, and that the board meeting recording had been inadvertently deleted.
The Condominium Authority Tribunal held that the law firm acted as an agent, making the AGM recording a record of the corporation subject to disclosure.
The Tribunal accepted that the board meeting recording was deleted without bad faith.
The respondent was ordered to provide the AGM recording and pay a $250 penalty and $200 in costs.
