Pamela Bourne-Chase

The Professional Conduct Committee alleged that the Member committed professional misconduct by failing to cooperate with two investigations into complaints from former clients.

The Member did not attend the hearing.

The Discipline Committee found that the Member breached Rule 104.2 of the CPA Ontario Code of Professional Conduct by failing to respond to repeated communications from Standards Enforcement staff over several months.

The Committee ordered the Member to cooperate, pay a fine of $7,500, and pay costs of $2,800, failing which her membership would be suspended and ultimately revoked.
