British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Ryan-Glenlon v. Section 1 of The Owners, Strata Plan LMS 2532, 2021 BCCRT 871 (CanLII):
16. I agree with the strata that the CRT does not have jurisdiction under its strata property jurisdiction to decide a tort claim, such as inducing breach of contract (see Alameer v. Zhang, 2021 BCCRT 435). However, I disagree with the strata that this is the end of the matter.
