Definition : Abnormal neighborhood disturbance

Nuisances that exceed the normal annoyances  that the neighbors must accept (noise, odors, dust, smoke, etc.), according to the nature or location of their land, dwelling or local usage. To be abnormal, the annoyance must be severe to the point of being intolerable. In divided co-ownership, the Civil Code of Quebec specifies that each co-owner freely uses and enjoys his private portion and the common portions,  provided that he respects the by-laws of the immovable and does not infringe the rights of the other co-owners or the destination of the immovable. This is why the By-laws of the immovable generally contain clauses sanctioning abnormal neighborhood disturbances. The victim of a neighborhood disturbance may apply to the court for an application for injunction or damages against the person who causes it, when it is continuous or repetitive and the inconvenience caused is real and serious
