Charles has been at the heart of Condoland since condos were introduced into Canadian law in the 1970’s.
For twenty five years Charles was the top seller’s agent of residential condominium in Toronto, was called “the King Cobra of condo sales” and was said to “be able to sell you a condo if you had a bet that you wouldn’t buy one”.
He has taught thousands of straight commission sales people how to sell and is the visionary that designed realtor.ca well before there was even an Internet producing a DOS CD-ROM in 1990 to sell Toronto area condos to nervous Chinese residents of Hong Kong who feared the 1997 reversion of the Colony to the Chinese.

So outrageous were these people that Charles prioritized and pushed back “Crisis in Condoland” to teach Canadians how to protect themselves against cons bullying and exploiting them.
Charles tells it like no-one else can and is desperately calling all conscientious Canadians to join him in saving Canada from itself as our civic institutions are obviously failing us.
