We have a new law in Ontario called the Business Practices Act. Its purpose is to prevent unfair business practices in sales to the public. Here's what the law does: • it prohibits false, misleading or deceptive tactics in the sale of products and services. • it prohibits too high prices, unfair contracts and high-pressure sales methods. • helps people get their money back if a seller has taken unfair advantage of them, The Province of Ontario wants you to get your money's worth when you .buy. Expensive items such as cars and homes require a lot of thought, so the Government of Ontario has prepared some simple booklets that tell you what to watch out for when you buy, explain- ing the do's and don'ts about: "Buying a Car" "Buying Real Estate", "Buying a Condorninium" "Getting a Mortgage" You can also get a booklet called "Balance in the Marketplace—The Consumer's Guide to the Business Practices Act."
