Our thanks to the Toronto Star’s Eric Lai for inviting our Firm to respond to one of their reader’s questions this past weekend – you’ll find the article here. The original Toronto Star’s article here. (PDF file).
In that article, you’ll find the following reference links here:
- Without the consent of the car owner, tow trucks can only remove cars in limited circumstances as set in The Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 545 – Licensing (see subsection 545-112);
- Ontario’s Small Claims Court;
- Ontario’s Small Claims Rules;
- To make a complaint against this tow truck company, you can contact Toronto Police Service Parking Enforcement East; and
- Tow truck companies across Ontario may soon be subject to the Bill 87, Towing Industry Act, 2008.
