I suspect eventually strata will ask if someone moved in (rentals are forbidden in the building) and might probe more into what is going on there.
I've read over the by-laws and I can't see any mention about restrictions on office-space like this, nor can I see anything in the BC strata laws.
Can anyone think of any issues the strata may be able to harass me with? I can see visitor parking being such an issue (which is fine, there's ample street parking) but I can't think of anything else.

If your strata really has a problem with it, they can make your life difficult and have leverage on the basis that you cannot operate a business without a business license, and you cannot obtain a business license for a property that is not zoned for it, ie a residential apartment.
I doubt it's a problem but there are certainly some legal reasons why you can't just run a call center in your empty apartment...
