From BB's: The Greater Toronto Area has a number of "community standards" laws based by the local municipalities for homes.....

THey dont come up often because most people dont realise you can complain about the neon pink fence that your neighbour put up. I heard recently about a neon blue fence that someone painted on the side that backed onto a collector road in Brampton...they were told to change it or the City would do it for them and the cost applied to their property taxes.
I know that property deeds in the Erin Mills neighbourhood of Mississauga say that your garage doors are only supposed to be certain colours.
Our laws are not as bad as some of the stuff that I have heard about from the HOA's in the US, but they do exist in this part of Ontario at least. Most people are just not aware of them.
