Why it matters here
What Ontario businesses need to get right.
Door-to-door restrictions since 2018
Unsolicited door-to-door contracting for furnaces, air conditioners, water heaters and similar products has been restricted since March 1, 2018, with a 10-day cooling-off period for direct agreements.
No more NOSIs on consumer goods
Since June 6, 2024, notices of security interest on goods like furnaces and water heaters can no longer be registered on a home's title. Signed, verified agreements matter more for rentals and financing.
OMVIC disclosure rules
OMVIC administers the Motor Vehicle Dealers Act: all-in pricing, and disclosure of material facts such as prior rental use or accident damage over $3,000.
