Overview

Join A Housing Co-op! What Could Go Wrong? What do you do when your affordable dream home becomes a nightmare-and no one will help? When Mark O'Meara moved into a BC housing co-op, he expected community, fairness, and shared responsibility. What he got instead was a front-row seat to institutional dysfunction, weaponized governance, and psychological warfare disguised as ""community living."" For over a decade, he endured harassment, negligence, and escalating retaliation-all while trying to uphold the very principles the co-op claimed to value: transparency, fairness, and member participation. This gripping true story exposes the dark underbelly of a system meant to protect residents but often shields abusers in power. With a teacher's clarity and a survivor's insight, O'Meara documents a Kafkaesque descent into gaslighting, health crises, and failed oversight-culminating in a devastating betrayal by the very institutions designed to intervene. But this isn't just a tale of trauma-it's a call for reform, a testimony of resilience, and a must-read for anyone navigating co-operative housing, community conflict, or the silent toll of institutional betrayal. Raw. Courageous. Eye-opening. Join A Housing Co-op! What Could Go Wrong? is a warning, a cry for help - and a story that needs to be heard.
