I wish we had a representative from our legal side here.
One potential problem in that area is that I know we have on at least one occasion raised the issue of trying to apply section 124 in relation to these types of unregistered consultants, and the view of crown counsel was that for the sole act of not being a registered consultant, there was a question in the mind of the Department of Justice about whether criminal sanction was the appropriate type of sanction to use to deal with that type of contravention. Their view was that civil administrative sanctions were more appropriate when there was not a misrepresentation injury involved.
