This sounds like an AODA violation to me. Unfortunately IANAL so that’s a non-expert opinion, but I believe the curbs are there because they are required for accessibility, so I don’t see how their policy can legally be that they are unusable for 1/3 or so of the year. A building wouldn’t be allowed to have their elevator out of service December-March every year.
