With great power comes great responsibility: not all condo directors act rationally, reasonably or in their condo’s best interests. What do we make of those rogue directors who stir up conflict at every turn, disseminate confidential information and otherwise publicly criticize the board?

Our Q & A from legal experts provides a broad overview of condo directorship and the pitfalls to avoid: https://riskbossmagazine.com/2023/10/19/legal-updates-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/

How Hormones can impact your career

There's an old saying: "Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper."

It holds true. Studies reveal that your metabolism operates most efficiently when you front-load your calories. Given this, noted MD, Dr. Elaine Chin finds herself puzzled by the trend of intermittent fasting. While it does lead to weight loss due to reduced calorie intake, it's also been reported to boost energy levels.

She has two theories that might explain these observations.

Generational awareness and analysis have been a mainstream science in the academic and business world for some time. Each generation has unique to them, certain characteristics that differentiate them from other generations.

All generations share certain traits, beliefs, customs, and behaviours unique to their age group. Other factors obviously have impacts that differentiate people outside of generational norms such as place of birth, culture, and religion, etc.

We will be highlighting one generation in this, and each future edition. It is our goal to help readers understand the impact factors and traits of each generation.

In this edition, we discuss The Greatest Generation, 1901 – 1927: https://riskbossmagazine.com/2023/10/19/generational-awareness-for-business/

The tragic shooting incident on December 18, 2022, at the Bellaria Residences Condominium in Vaughan, Ontario continues to impact the public psyche in Ontario. There have been shootings in condominiums like the many at Airbnb downtown Toronto sites, but never the scale of this mass execution-style murder of Board members. Are people worried? Yes, they are.

Since the Bellaria shooting, Riskboss has been inundated with requests for information on what prudent measures should be taken to protect property managers, Board members and other site personnel. In response to these inquiries, Riskboss created a White Paper on best practices that when implemented, will make your condominium community more resilient against unwanted attention and aggression, and better prepare you to deal with emergencies when such incidents occur.

Ask Riskboss question from a Resident of East End Toronto Condominium, Name Withheld

“Our condo board has come to our community with another maintenance fee increase citing that the Ontario government has raised the minimum wage stating this October. The board didn’t explain it in a way that I could fully understand. Most of us believe in paying our workers well as they do a good job but why is it that owners always must foot the bill for such increases and when will it all end?”

The Return to Heirloom

Right now, we are in the height of tomato harvest season in Ontario and have some of the best tomatoes we have ever seen. A new tomato that we have never seen is a Tasti Lee. It’s a medium size, plum red tomato that is one of the sweetest things we have ever tasted. Deep red flesh tastes great fresh or cooked, with true tomato flavour.

Check out an excellent recipe for a tasty cream of tomato bisque soup from Top Chef Rory White: https://riskbossmagazine.com/2023/10/19/healthy-eating-healthy-living-3/

AirTags – what are they and are you at risk?
You can find countless travel horror stories of how airlines have lost luggage over the years. Since 2021 when the product was introduced, many travelers have taken to using AirTags to find their wayward luggage. There are stories of travelers being able to find their luggage days and even months after initially departing on their trip.

But what if you wanted to track something else? Maybe you want to put an AirTag into your partner’s wallet to make sure (s)he’s going to the gym and not to the bar with friends. Or maybe your partner has put one in your car without your knowledge? It can be a very valuable tool but the list of improper use for AirTags is endless.

Toronto History: Barbershops
In 1802, Mr. Thomas Seaton Peacock announced that as soon as he could get away from his regimental duties by the end of the year, he meant to settle in Toronto (then it was named York) and open a Ladies and Gentlemen’s Hairdresser establishment.

The following year in 1803 a Mr. Rock opened a hairstyling and wig powering premises on Ontario Street with ads proclaiming, “Monsieur Rock direct from London will look after all your hair and wig needs”.

By 1805 in a town of only 500 people we now had 4 barbers in time when a hairstylist was just as important as a butcher.
