Former PM Kim Campbell suing Vancouver developers over tardy condo
VANCOUVER – Former prime minister Kim Campbell is suing a Vancouver property developer over years of delays in delivering her condo.
The one-time Conservative leader and Canadian ambassador has filed a lawsuit against Georgia Properties Partnership, Georgia Trust and Hotel Georgia Management Ltd.
In her notice of claim, Campbell says she signed a contract in October 2007 to buy a suite in the swank Private Residences of Hotel Georgia, and put down a $368,000 deposit.
She says construction was originally to be completed by December 2011, but the developers changed that date seven times — and on at least two occasions without filing the necessary amendments.
Campbell wants the purchase contract voided and her deposit back, plus interest. A trial has been scheduled for next January in B.C. Supreme Court.
Campbell’s is one of a dozen lawsuits filed against Georgia Trust and Georgia Properties in the past year.
