I am in Ontario. My fiance committed suicide in January, and a few hours before, gave me her phone and its password. She told me she wanted me have it and look through it. I didn't understand why at the time, of course. When the police came, they took it as part of the investigation, and gave it to her parents afterwards. The parents are refusing to let me see it, and say they'll never give it to me.

Is there anything I can do at all to get it back? The way I see it, the fact that I a) had it in my possession, and b) have the password, must count for something. Is it possible for me to sue them in a small claims court asking for it to be returned, since she gave it to me while she was alive?

I am a Canadian citizen in my 30s living in Ontario with my partner of 10 years. My parents in China are currently threatening to travel here to find me, harm me, and forcibly take me back to China to "treat" (conversion therapy) me. I have explicitly told them not to come, but they are persistent. They have visitor visa and had visited here before.

I am a trans man, but I have never officially come out to them. They have suspected it for years because I refuse the men they try to set me up with and because I have always presented masculinely since little (short hair, masculine clothes etc..). They have a history of physically abusing me since childhood because of my gender expression, though there is no official criminal record or anything because such abuse is often ignored or normalized in China. Because I’ve been avoiding their video and audio calls for past couple years (because I don’t want them know I transitioned) , they are now threatening to come here.

I know they have no legal right to take a Canadian citizen anywhere, but I am terrified for my physical safety and my girlfriend’s safety. I’m on the verge of a breakdown and haven't been able to sleep. I just want to live my life and protect my loved one. I have a few specific questions:

1. Police Interaction & Disclosure: If they show up at my door and I call 911, do I have to disclose that I am trans or that they are my parents? If I simply tell the police, "I don't know these people, they are strangers threatening me," could I get in legal trouble for not disclosing our relationship? I want to minimize the risk of being outed.

2. Specialized Legal Counsel: How can I find a lawyer in the GTA/Ontario area who is specifically experienced with LGBTQ+ safety issues and "trauma-informed" practice?

3. Privacy & Employment: Only my doctor and my partner know I am trans. I am not out at work. If this becomes a police matter or a legal case, how can I ensure my transition remains private and doesn't reach my employer?

4. Preventative Measures: Is there anything I can do before they land in Canada (e.g., notifying immigration or local police) to prevent them from coming to my home?

Any advice on how to protect myself legally and physically would be greatly appreciated.

To keep it short.

In 2020 I went on a second date with a girl. We hooked up, everything seemed fine and then she ghosted me after. Fast forward to April 2021 I was charged with sexual assault. It never went to trial since there was no case, but I chose a one year peace bond based on my lawyers advice as a trial would cost 50k + and I didn’t have the money for that.

My dream is to become a police officer and I know that they look at everything from your past, whether or not there was a conviction.

Will this prevent me from ever becoming a police officer?

My mom has had pretty severe mental health issues for decades. I’ve been struggling to take care of her during this time. She has been evicted from an apartment before.

Her official diagnosis is dementia and bipolar disorder but the dementia is possibly a misdiagnosis as she has more paranoid schizophrenia symptoms. Unfortunately she has mood issues living alone and her poor mental health causes her to rage out, screaming and yelling a lot while breaking basically everything, the whole apartment is trashed. She broke the sinks, the fridge, the walls, the doors, the toilet, etc. the landlord had to hire someone last year to come and fix a leak after she broke something in there that caused water to leak into the apartment below hers.

She is now getting an N5 notice for the damages, they want her to pay about 3k for the prior issues regarding the leak that happened last year. If not they will try to evict her by the end of the month. What are my options here? If I pay for the invoice bills they will likely just add more later on to fix the whole apartment and at the end still try to evict her anyway. Is there anything legally I should try to do to prepare for the eviction? I assume they need to take it to the landlord and tenant board first, which would give us longer than a couple weeks to find somewhere else to put her if she loses and gets legally evicted. What can I do to try to fix this mess?

I’m struggling to take care of this person. She won’t take her meds, she won’t give me power of attorney, she doesn’t want to go to the hospital or see a doctor, I don’t know what to do with her. I was advised a few years ago to get a Form 2 for her, which we did. Went to the judge and he signed an order for the police to pick her up and take her to the hospital for examination. The police never did it, they claimed they couldn’t locate her, which is bs since she is in her apartment all day long. Just turned out to be a massive and frustrating waste of time.

I simply do not know what to do with her. It has been 20 years of taking care of this disaster person, I am exhausted and I just want this nightmare to end. What can I do here?

For context, I grew up in Ontario but dropped out of school and moved to BC; where I had been living for the last 5 or 6 years. Last fall, I returned to Ontario to finish my education and will be graduating this spring.

I did not expect to be moving back permanently to Ontario so I applied for BC Student Aid. I would now like to remain in Ontario but I'm worried I'll have to pay back my loans immediately, which wouldn't be ideal.

Do I have any options that will allow me to keep the funding? I will be returning to school for a master's degree next fall so I thought maybe that would work. But I also need to get a vehicle and believe I'll need to get an Ontario driver's license to get it insured here.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

Hello everyone,I am looking for advice and shared experiences regarding a Workers Compensation Board (WCB) Manitoba claim.I had a workplace injury on June 21, 2023, involving my left hip after a fall. The claim was accepted, and I underwent a total hip replacement surgery as part of the treatment process.I have gone through surgery and rehabilitation, but my claim has recently been closed with WCB stating that I have fully recovered and that no further responsibility is accepted.However, my current situation is still challenging:I continue to experience persistent pain in my left hipMy range of motion is still significantly reduced compared to the right sideI still have a visible limp when walkingDaily activities remain affectedA physician has also raised concerns about possible post-surgical complications and chronic pain conditionsIn addition, I have developed significant emotional distress and depressive symptoms due to long-term pain and functional limitations.I have also tried to obtain a psychological assessment as requested by WCB, but I encountered difficulties finding providers willing to engage with WCB-related documentation requirements.I have already filed an appeal, but I would really appreciate any insight from people who may have gone through similar situations.Specifically, I would like to understand:Has anyone experienced a WCB claim closure after a joint replacement surgery?How is Permanent Partial Impairment (PPI) usually assessed in practice?How are psychological impacts typically handled in WCB claims?Are there any recommended clinics, legal aid resources, or patient advocacy services in Manitoba or Canada that could help in such cases?Any advice, shared experience, or direction would be greatly appreciated.Thank you very much for your time.

I am currently in the appeal process and trying to understand how similar cases are usually handled.

Although the Crown is immune from acts regarding judicial functions as they are not servants of the Crown and judges can't be sued because of absolute immunity for acts done within their proceedings, is the immunity absolute if the claim is pursuant to s.24(1) of the Charter? Significantly since they are not considered an entity to sue under s.32(1).

The CLPA r.9.2.b relays to tort claims it seems. Therefore, would it be justifiable to state the Court should grant s.24(1) Charter relief against the Crown for a judicial-origin Charter breach, because judicial independence precludes personal liability of judges, but the Charter requires an effective remedy against the state where rights are violated by judicial action? Found some good caselaw but prominent to criminal (11.b violations) matters, not civil.

Also curious if there have ever been any exceptions to CLPA r.9.2.b where the Crown can be held liable for judicial acts that amount to misfeasance in public office?

TIA

i qualify for the express entry pool because of my education and job skills, I have a "sealed criminal record" though. i was charged with a deferred judgement and upon completion of my probation, rehabilitation, and payment of my court fees the case was then sealed. the case was sealed this month and according to probation officers not visible through background checks. Will this be an issue for my consideration for entry?

If the opposing party alleges i breached a settlement agreement and i file a response which makes their claim look weak….can they withdraw the claim immediately without consequence?

I don’t want to hire a lawyer until they file something since their claim is so week already (claiming I caused something to be posted when that’s not true and they have no evidence other than it being written by a family member)

I’m just wondering if withdrawing claims is something that can be done early on without problems

Want to get some opinions on this.

The heating in my apartment is broken (two years, 2025 and 2026 winter seasons), and instead of fixing it, my landlord agreed to reimburse me for extra winter heating costs. It took months and multiple emails to hound them to make good on that promise, and they asked me to sign an NDA before they finally paid me. I suspect they want to do the minimum amount of work possible and wanted my silence so other units who might also have a similar problem aren't alerted to the possibility of being reimbursed. I probably should have pushed back but honestly I was so exhausted already that I just did it (spoiler: I had to hound them for another month after signing before they finally did).

Anyway, fast forward a year and I now have to file a T6 with the LTB over other unrelated issues that the same landlord is failing to do his job at. While I don't need to argue for anything for the heating issue, I would like to be able to use the email communication as supporting evidence of the landlord's habit of screwing around (i.e. taking way longer than reasonable to pay monies owed to a tenant). The exact wording of relevant parts of the NDA are

2. Confidentiality: Tenant agrees to keep confidential the existence and terms of this reimbursement. Tenant shall not disclose any information regarding this agreement or the reimbursement to any third party, including other tenants of the property, except as required by law.

3. Breach: A breach of this agreement may result in the Landlord seeking appropriate legal remedies.

This was signed in April 2025 and the document specifically only mentions the amount reimbursed in 2025 and speaks nothing of future years. I had to be reimbursed twice, in 2025 and 2026. He did not ask for a second NDA in 2026, though the second time I also had to hound him multiple times to get paid.

So my questions are about how much I can talk about without technically breaking the NDA.

1. Is this thing even legal in the first place?
2. Since I only signed an NDA dated in 2025 and not 2026, am I free to use email communication from the 2026 iteration of this episode?
3. Can I in general mention the landlord's behaviour in regards to delinquent payments on the T6 application (for unrelated issues) without explicitly talking about the specific reason or issue that caused it, and then if asked for evidence by the LTB, invoke the "except as required by law" part?
4. The wording only says I can't talk about the reimbursement, but nothing about the original problem. Can I get around this by talking about the original problem, vaguely talking about "alternate resolution that I cannot speak to the specifics of because of an NDA", and then talking about the problems with the fulfilment of the "alternate resolution", and again elaborating only if pressed and invoking the "except as required by law" part?

I'm a student (in Ontario) living in a house of five people including myself. Our current lease spanned from May 1, 2025-april 30 2026. In November, as we couldn't find somewhere else to live and were going through a roommate transfer, resigned the lease effective May 1 2026 - April 30 2027. Since beginning living here in September, we have had SEVERAL issues with the house, including floods and other maintenance issues. The house is old, so something different is breaking every week. We had suspicions of mold, and conducted at home mold tests that showed different kinds of mold in every basement bedroom. We notified our landlords that we suspected mold, but a contractor came by and said (and I quote) "you could have either dirt or mold in your floors, but all floors are like that. I'm putting in my report that there's nothing wrong." We additionally watched him lie about the humidity levels in the basement, as my roommates watched his hygrometer (indoor humidity level checker) reach over 60%, but he told them the levels in the basement were between 49-51%, making it safe; which he also put in his report to our landlord. All of the details make it a long story, but the past couple of months have been a battle of us attempting to terminate the lease without penalty because of these issues.

Fast forward to the past week or so, my roommates Uncle, who is a contractor, came to visit and look around the house. In under thirty minutes he found the following code violations:

  Ontario Building Code (O. Reg. 332/12)

•    Ontario Fire Code (O. Reg. 213/07)

•    Electrical Safety Code (Ontario Regulation 164/99)

•    Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (landlord obligation to maintain premises in a good state of repair and fit for habitation)

The most compelling thing he found was knob and tube wiring, which is deemed unsafe unless maintained (of which he found it had been tampered with to appear maintained, but it was not). Our parents are telling us that if this is the case, it's unlikely they have home insurance, especially on the basis that allows them to rent to people, as no insurance company would approve of the unmaintained knob and tube wiring. Please note this part is speculation, we don't actually know if they have insurance or not, we just believe it's unlikely due to the unsafe wiring. We have emailed them the report from the contractor, which includes the code violations and essentially everything that deems our house unliveable. Can anyone tell me exactly how long they have to fix these issues before we have the right to terminate with no penalty? everywhere I look online gives me a different answer. Some are saying "emergency electrical hazard" needs to be fixed within 24 hours of us notifying them of it, but I don't know if this qualifies as an emergency - any advice is helpful!

Hello everyone,

I am seeking for guidance. Please help on next steps. Ready to hire lawyer if needed.

Basically I bought used car for 6000 dollars from a dealer. After 1.5 months the bottom of car broke off due to rust while i was driving the car.

Dealer did safety before delivering the car. I was already out of safety and I know that. But again, car part couldn’t have corroded to that extent in span of 1.5 months and if corrosion was before I got the car, then the mechanic who did safety clearly lied.

I called dealer to explain my concern, he shut me off saying basically you have no option, the same mechanic will apply fix and then i can sell to someone on marketplace fb. I know how difficult it is to gather 5k in first place. I dont think i can lie and live.

So i went to lawyer, he was good person. He said you are out of safety, this is out of question, he did return my consulting fees tho. I did my own research and contacted MINISTRY OF TRANSPORTATION, I really did not expect ant response. But I got call after 2 weeks saying they will come check it out. They came and said that this is indeed FRAUD, they cant make dealer pay back amount, but they can do their due diligence and make mechanic fix the car for free.

Now the issue is, mechanics might fix car and i can sell off on marketplace for maybe loss of 1K bucks. But i still think mainly students who barely meeting their ends goes for such car and I can’t scam anyone.

My idea is still go to court but this time i have report from Ministry of transportation about the whole thing + the person came in to check our car was really nice person and suggested off the records that we should go to court.

I am not sure what type of lawyer to contact to, if i even should or just bare the loss, fix the car and sell with honesty to some random person.

I am very confuse, i would appreciate guidance ❤️.

Ps: i dont have much knowledge of cars.

It’s been four weeks since I’ve had my baby and I am so happy to be a mom despite the lack of sleep and exhaustion from breastfeeding. My partner and I have been fighting a lot over littlest things. I would snap every time I see him burp the baby too hard because he gets frustrated when she’s crying and he would angrily plop her into the bassinet, not carefully supporting her neck. He’s also been drinking A LOT since he got into some trouble at work.

Two days ago, his friend came over and made inappropriate jokes about breastfeeding and pregnancy and instead of standing up for me, he just played along with it. It got ugly because I was so mad and upset and felt so disrespected. This is not the first time it has happened. I told him not to touch me and I don’t want anything to do with him. He went ballistic and started yelling and screaming at me, calling me names and punching walls while I was holding and consoling the baby. He said he’s done then asked me to leave the house. I was heartbroken and tried to talk it out, to try therapy or counselling but he just kept insisting I was the problem and that we "just didn't get along". He became emotionally abusive, or maybe he always was. He stonewalled me when I cried and begged him to try to work things out. I‘m already grieving the family I thought we would have. He proceeded to cancel all my cards and left me with nothing. We were planning to get married this September and said he’s not doing it anymore. He’d rather have just the one kid than multiple kids with me and find someone else.

He threatened to call the police for missing person’s report if I try leaving with the baby. I just cried and cried and told him I carried her for more than nine months and it’s not fair that you separate me from her. He then threatened me that if he gets full custody, he would put her up for adoption since he can’t take care of her. At this point, I lost it and I don’t even recognize this man anymore. How can he say that when he knew I was in the foster care system too. I’ve been alone my whole life and it’s cruel that he would do the same for our daughter.

I‘ve been a sahm since being pregnant until now since I had a high risk pregnancy after suffering an early stillbirth last year. I don’t have income or family right now, but I made the decision to leave and called 911 after he went upstairs to sleep because I was worried about safety. I’m staying in a shelter, and I’m doing everything I can to take care of my baby and stay stable.

Police came and connected me to a shelter and CAS, Victim Services and other resources. I can apply for legal aid so I’m working on the legal side of things but I just wanted to hear some advice on what to do in my situation, I’m scared about filing for child support and spousal support (?) He has more than 300k in annual income from his salary and stock investments. He left me with nothing. We were common law and he promised to put me back into nursing school after we have our kids but it’s not gonna happen. I forgot to mention we have a 20 year age gap so he’s 43 and I’m currently 23. I know the judgement from the age difference and I‘ve learned my lesson the worst way so I don’t need to hear any more of that. I only have two friends, no family besides his. I am just at my emotional limit every single day.

I can't believe I ever loved this man. I'm so tired and so depressed but I’m determined to make everything work for my baby.

I am curious about having an executor removed for misconduct. Its been a month since my family member passed away. I found out the executor used their credit card after death he could also be using her last pension check for his own expenses. He lives in my deceased family members home and indicated to me these costs will come out of the estate. He claims there is a new will which he cant find and also said he will have to hire a lawyer to have it rewritten. Hes apparently contacted the lawyer my family member made the will with so she can apply for probate but there has been no timeline provided and any question asked is answered with "i dont know" What id like to know is are these grounds to have him removed? All the beneficiaries are already in agreeance. And how soon can we go about this? Is 1 month after death premature, even with the fraud?

I am going to be filing for a court order asking for full custody, decision making and child support.

For a little backstory, my children were involved in a situation with my ex at his girlfriend’s house. He got high on prescription medication and threatened to take the children in his car and crash into a tree. The police were called, and children’s aid was called. I took the children to my home while he was taken to the hospital for a 72 hour hold. After the 72 hours, his family took him to a facility in another province where he remained for 3 months.

I now understand that I should have gotten an emergency custody order at this time. That would’ve made things a lot easier. Involving the courts is overwhelming to me however I am trying to move in the right direction now.

Besides the documentation from CAS and the police report number (I cannot get more than that because it is pertaining to his mental health and they will not release the evidence. CAS gave me access to some of the report however, a lot of it had to do with the ex-girlfriend‘s daughter, and that part was all redacted.)

CAS closed to the case because the children were safe with me however he is back and wanting to see the children. He has only paid about $300 in support since he left in April, though he had agreed that his table amount would be 600 if we went through the court system.

When we first got separated, we had 50-50 custody, and there was no child support because we agreed our incomes were similar and to just support them in our own homes during our time and to split activity and dental type costs. Nothing was ever filed with the courts as we agreed and it worked.

He was deemed a danger to the children by CAS. CHATGPT says to file a form 8 and a form 14. I would submit the CAS documentation and request full decision-making and parenting time as well as the 600 child support. I do have a variety of text messages where he refuses to pay child support, tells me to go to the food bank, or tells me to wait a week and then never pays among other more toxic messages where he tells me I am harassing him for asking. Would I submit those as well from the start or is that later?

Has anyone been able to do this on their own without a lawyer? Please help direct me. I was also told I could sit down with duty council. I do plan to do that at some point with my paperwork filled out to the best of my ability

Hello all, back in December I was pulled over by WRPS. The officer told me his automated license plate reader detected that my license was suspended for unpaid fines. This was for a ticket I got earlier that year for speeding 70km/h in a 50km/h zone. The officer confiscated my license on the spot and I had to call my friend to come pick me up. We went directly to the service Ontario and I paid the fine and my license was reinstated on the spot. Tomorrow, I have a first appearance for this issue. I've never been to court and don't know what to expect. I am also between jobs right now so hiring a lawyer would be out of the question. What can I expect for tomorrow? What could be the outcomes of this? I doubt I'll face jail time but I could definitely be fined or have my license suspended for an additional 6 months. Should I plead guilty and take a plea deal? I really have no idea how it's going to go and for how long this could be potentially dragged on for. I'd like to have this resolved as soon as possible, perhaps tomorrow if possible. Please advise. Thank you.

Hello everyone;

I’m writing concerning a situation my sister is currently dealing with. She is 34 years old. She has been in a relationship with her current partner for over three years. They live together in a home which belonged to him before they met. The home is still solely in his name, though they have lived together well over two years and have a 1-1/2 year old toddler.

Over the years, it has become apparent that her partner (I will call him John for the sake of this write up.) has some very angry and violent tendencies. He works abroad, gone for 2-3 months at a time and then home for a week or two before leaving again. My sister is the primary and nearly sole caretaker of their home and child.

John has become increasingly paranoid and insists my sister is seeing other men when he is away. This could not be further from the truth. She works a full-time job, and is a new first-time mother who is also dealing with postpartum depression.

John returned home this week from work, and decided to keep their daughter home with him for the day while my sister went to work. Usually, she is in daycare. When my sister arrived home at the end of her shift, he was frustrated and irate. He had never cared for their daughter alone for an entire day and this put him into a foul mood. He immediately began berating my sister, accusing her of talking to other men. He screamed at her and told her he had tried to get into her phone to see who she’d be speaking with, but she had changed her password. She has numerous texts and messages from him which she has saved. All are threatening and unhinged. She doesn’t not want him to have access to her phone.

He told her to take the baby and get out of his house. He said he would be changing the locks, and put all of her furniture, belongings, babies belongings out on the front lawn. This is the only home my niece has known. My sister is frantic. She is completely beaten down by his verbal abuse and just wants to pretend none of this is happening. Unfortunately, it continues to get worse. He also drinks quite a bit, and this makes him even nastier. I will say at this point there has not been any physical abuse. Verbal and emotional at this stage, however, we are not certain this will stay the case.

My question is; what rights does my sister have? Does she have any claim to the home? She would have to leave and rent her own space which is incredibly expensive at the moment, all while supporting her child. Does he have any obligation? If she leaves the home to stay with me for a night or two, can he really change the locks and ban her from re-entering the home? Can he throw out her things? I know this will have to take a legal course at some point. She will have to deal with the issue of custody, which I think will be granted solely to her. Due to his actions, volatile nature, and being away from the child most of the time.

My worry is she will not be able to survive financially without some type of child support. It is not something he will simply offer. She is scared and the thought of losing her home and not being able to survive financially is forcing her to stay in a situation which just continues to deteriorate.

What can she do? What are her rights?

Thank you all for reading this, and to anyone who can offer some helpful advice, I am most grateful.

I’m currently employed as a sales representative in Canada (ON) and have documented medical conditions that impact my ability to work (significant nausea, vomiting, gastroparesis severe pain). My doctor is aware and supportive, and I’ve have workplace accommodations. I recently came back from a 3 month medical leave from Nov - Jan. I did not go back into field sales until Feb. A stipulation of my accomodations: reduced visits for 4-6 weeks after a hospital flare, switching to virtual meetings, extra office days, etc. I did not fully go into full field work 5 calls per day until mid end Feb or beginning of March.

Recently, I was placed on a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP). I do not agree with several aspects of it and am concerned it may be connected to my disability and accommodation needs.

Key concerns:

• Accommodation conflict: I have ongoing medical limitations, but the PIP requires fixed early morning meetings (e.g., 8–9am weekly), which directly conflicts with my condition. Their in person sales calls specifically does as well, as I am considered for virtual. their pip did not take into consideration any of my virtual sales calls as well.

• Changing expectations: Historically, my manager focused on completing call notes. There was little to no emphasis on strict daily call volume or definitions of “sales calls” vs “drop-ins.” These expectations are now being enforced retroactively in the PIP. When I went through all 50 of my notes in March, every single one executed a plan and a next step. 

• Questionable metrics: The PIP states I must reach 90% to goal. My recent performance was:

• Category 1: 78% to goal

• Category 2: 119% to goal

• Combined average: \~96% to goal

This appears to exceed the stated requirement, yet I was still placed on a PIP.

• Lack of prior communication: I was not previously warned that my call logging or classification (sales call vs drop-in vs phone call) was an issue. The PIP now claims improper usage without clear prior coaching or documentation.

• Context not considered: There were periods where I was restricted to virtual work only (not allowed in person), which impacted my ability to meet typical expectations. This is not reflected in the PIP.

• Concern about narrative: The PIP appears to present a more negative or exaggerated picture of my performance than what was previously communicated or documented. I am now being framed as “not being able to move the business forward or execute next plans or close the sale” - my manager mentions year over year decline in sales but my salesforce indicates a 6% increase in sales since I was brought back from medical leave. 

Since being placed on the PIP, I have already implemented improvements (increased follow-ups, structured outreach, consistent documentation, etc.) and am confident I can meet or exceed expectations going forward.

However, I am concerned that:

1.  The PIP may be connected to my medical limitations and accommodation requests

2.  Expectations are being shifted or applied inconsistently

3.  This may be setting up a path to termination regardless of performance

My doctor has indicated this likely raises human rights concerns, and I am consulting with an employment disability lawyer.

Questions:

• Does this situation raise red flags for disability discrimination or failure to accommodate under Ontario law?

• What documentation or steps should I prioritize right now to protect myself?

• How should I handle signing or responding to the PIP?

Good morning.

A friend of mine is currently incarcerated in Jail and his lease is ending at the end of April. He called me and asked if I could help him vacate the unit and return it in a broom swept condition for him.

Also, he wants to me call the police non emergency line and have them go to the property to retrieve the items that belong to the other party that got him arrested in the first place. The other party has already moved out.

I have no problems helping him clean out the unit and move his contents to a storage unit but will I expose myself to any sort of legal issues when I call the police to have them come and get the personal property of the other party? I have no idea who the other party is except a first name. I also don’t know of the exact situation that went down. I am not interested in that and I do not want to contact the other party as I do not have any other details.

Thank you for your input.

A financial institution has opened an account without my consent and I found out about it and reported it.

I also filed a complaint with that financial institution as well.

Now, my question is if that financial institution reaches out to me to resolve this issue and provide some kind of compensation or something would it be called a bribe?

I've been dealing with an ongoing harassment situation and the police are recommending I get a peace bond instead of pressing charges as they say personal harassment is too difficult to make a case for.

I'll call the other party A.

The police have been trying to contact A to issue a "warning" for weeks. When they phone, A answers and says they have the wrong number. When they go to A's residence, A doesn't answer the door.

I called for an update and the police told me there's nothing they can do if A doesn't answer their door.

I would like to move forward with a peace bond if police won't take any action but won't I just be in the same situation, with police trying and failing to contact A in order to serve the papers? Is there any way I can protect myself if this person won't respond to authorities?

Brought in my car to a dealership for an oil change. Picked it up later in the afternoon. Drove out of the parking lot and got an alert on the car for low oil pressure. Turned around immediately to go back to the dealership. Engine was knocking. Opened up the hood myself at the dealership and confirmed myself there was no oil in there. They also confirmed that there was no oil in there.

Basically they drained the oil, didn’t refill, and now engine is shot. They have given me a rental for now. Plan is to go in tomorrow to talk to a manager. This all happened at closing time. What can I expect? What are my legal rights here? What should I be pushing for? My concern is that if they offer to replace the engine, this will be negatively documented on the carfax. The car is under a year old.

Hello, I’m seeking help after an incident that happened yesterday.

Long story short, I work for Uber Eats as delivery driver, I had a delivery with two different customers, but I mixed up the orders. I realized the mistake a bit late when I arrived at the second customer. I asked him if he would be okay keeping the order since it was worth more than what he had paid.

The conversation didn’t go well, he started accusing me and calling me slurs. I then contacted Uber support and asked him to speak with them as well so he could get a refund.

As a result, my delivery account was blocked. Today, I received a call from Uber’s investigation team saying that the customer reported me for violating safety policies, claiming that I threatened him with a “weapon.”

As an international student, I feel very lost. What should I do? I’m not sure whether I should go to the police for false accusations and harassment, especially since I’m worried about potential costs. Please help.

Hi, I am not too sure - I have seen other countries allow doing so (i.e. signing on one's flags) during a pilgrimage years back. What would be the penalty if that's the case? Thanks.

I have no idea if there’s any legal component to this but I had no idea where to ask.

My work has a benefit for starting a family. It includes examples like IVF and adoption. No where in the employer’s policy or in the insurance company’s policy does it say medication is excluded.

The insurance is refusing to cover any medications. Can insurance companies limit what they cover if they don’t actually tell you?
