Lawyer Rob Kennaley has written a series of articles for Horticulture Review on the new Consumer Protection Act. Each installment takes a look at a different aspect of the Act. Landscape Ontario members who work in the residential sector or in retail should take steps to understand the new obligations and adjust their practices to efficiently meet them.


Part 1 - A whole new set of obligations

Part 2 - Should I stay or should I go?

Part 3 - Providing estimates to residential clients

Part 4 - Amendments, extensions and consequences of a breach under the act
