British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Heise v. The Owners, Strata Plan VR 237, 2021 BCCRT 296 (CanLII):
71. In The Owners, Strata Plan VR 766 v. Hayatshahi, 2020 BCCRT 451 (Hayatshahi), the CRT Vice Chair considered the strata’s request for an order than an owner only communicate through mail to the strata’s property manager. The Vice Chair decided that section 63(1) did not require the strata to provide access for all the possible forms of document delivery outlined above. In particular, the strata did not have to provide any of the methods listed in section 63(1)(c) or (d). However, the strata had to accept communication given directly to a strata council member or mailed to the strata under section 63(1)(a) and (b).
