The horrible thing is that HOASARE BECOMING MORE A THING IN Canada -- whereby your neighbours get to tell you how to decorate your home, when to mow your lawn, & all that kind of stuff, relating to YOUR sovereign ownership of land & building. British Properties, in West Vancouver, still attaches an encumbrance when you buy a property, forcing you to agree to never sell "to a Chinaman or Jew." & that's "in perpetuity" & goes with the property, not the owner, so you must include it when you resell at a later date. Oh, big surprise, for an estate property with that name, eh? --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-6 * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757) .
