HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1975-10-23, Page 20X11 Ontario Consumer Pblahed by: Ontario Mi istry of Consumer • and Commercial Relations itygofe ever felt like you've been "taken" after giving in t?►. t' slick sales pitch or btuyg a wonder product "pa ra.nteed" for a lifetime, IOU heart. The Ontario usiness Practices Act, which became effective May 1, 1975, can take the frustration out of such situations by giving you, the consumer, a way to claim redress if you've been the victim of an unfair business practice. The Act covers virtually every type of saps transac- tion between a Vendor and an individual consumer. For the first time it sets out clearly what unfair business practices are and what rights and remedies the consumer has. The Act protects not only the consumer but the business community as well by. unethical businessmen. Under the legislation, a salesman cannot, for ex- ample, encourage anyone to buy a product by making exaggeraed, misleading or false claims about the pro- duct's performance, quality, durability or the reason for its sales. Taking advantage of people who cannot pro- tect their own interests be- cause of age, sickness o,{ a poor understanding of The language is also prohibited. If you are the victim of an unfair practice, there are three courses of action you may take. First, ,you can hand -deliver or send by registered mail a letter ask- ing the company to cancel the agreement. This must be done within six months of the sale. Most businesses want to keep you as a cus- tomer, so they w; ; try to negotiate a satisfactory agreement with you. A businessman who refu- ses to negotiate with you in good faith can be taken to court. For products and ser- vices under $400 you can sue in Small Claims Court. Proceedings are quite inex- pensive and a lawyer is not needed. However, if you go to a higher court, a lawyer should be consulted. The third remedy is to write to the Consumer Pro- tection Bureau of the Busi- ness Practices Division in the Ministry, of ,Consumer and Commercial Relations. After the Bureau has re- viewed both sides of the case it can mediate between the consumer and the busi- nessman. Plain common sense is still the best protection against unfair practices. But if you do run into problems, the Act is there to help you solve them.
