Time to act on Ontario Act
BOB MOWAT
There is a move afoot within the industry that’s intent upon making some significant changes to Ontario’s Travel Industry Act (TIA).
That shouldn’t surprise anyone because it has happened before, as the industry took its complaints about the cost burdens on registrants and concerns about the ability of the provincial compensation fund to cover major bankruptcies of either registrants, or perhaps, more galling, the collapse of non-registrants.
That’s all by way of setting the scene, so to speak, as a couple of weeks ago, Richard Vanderlubbe – who is well versed in the Ontario Travel Industry Act – talked about some of his concerns with the TIA and his hopes that there would be changes to the provincial travel act.
