Article Summary: 

A tragic mass shooting in a Vaughan condominium community has raised concerns about mental health issues within the community and the need for amendments to the Condominium Act, 1998. The article highlights the lack of tools for directors to address mental health issues among unit owners and residents. It suggests amending the legislation to empower condominiums to seek court orders compelling unit owners to undergo capacity assessments to understand the consequences of their actions and potential risks. The proposed amendment aims to prevent escalated disputes and provide a safer environment for all involved.
