Default Re: Mike holmes again oahi style !

If Canadian inspectors do not bond as a unit with regard to this guy, they you deserve what you get.

My suggestion is to form an inspection cartel, not an association. Cartels are a common business model for a variety of businesses facing competition. There was once a franchise known as Pet Food Giant. They would blow into town, set up a huge store, offer unbelievable deals, and try and destroy local businesses. They even set up shop directly across from a competitor.

A cartel was formed by independent shop owners. Know what? Pet Fod Giant is no more, and the guy he set up shop across from is still in business, in a larger store.

Come on guys, you are better than this!

Be careful with cartels.....

As this language demonstrates, cartel conduct is not
per se illegal in Canada.
Rather, section 45 prohibits only those conspiracies that have “undue” anti-competitive effects,

as determined under a partial rule of reason analysis.

The purpose of such a cartel would be to protect the general public from mis-information and deceptive business practices of an alleged inspector who is well-funded and has business interests outside of the HI industry.

No anti-competition intended...
