Motor vehicle dealer registration refused due to consumer proposal, tax arrears, and breach of conditions.
The appellant appealed a Notice of Proposal by the Registrar to refuse his registration as a motor vehicle dealer.
The Registrar argued the appellant could not reasonably be expected to be financially responsible due to a recent consumer proposal and outstanding tax debts, which also constituted a breach of a prior registration condition.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the appellant's financial mismanagement, insolvency, and failure to remit HST demonstrated a lack of financial responsibility and a breach of conditions.
The Tribunal confirmed the Registrar's decision to refuse registration and declined to impose conditions, finding they would not adequately protect consumers.
