When I started writing about the problems I had with the 407 ETR I was surprised that people commented. I am now surprised about the problems that others are having.
I think that some of the people who have left comments need to ban together. I will help the best I can knowing that I have already handled them from my prospective. I believe that the issue comes down to changing the law. With the law changed, the 407 ETR will have to fall into line.
The latest person having a problem is Di Lane. It sounds like the 407 ETR really dropped the ball on her case. It will be her case that we should use in order to start the ball rolling. Di (and I believe that is her first name), should be exonerated from this billing. My thoughts behind that are as follows, the billing is over 7 years old, thus status bar and the 407 ETR did not send billings as they should have. What Di needs to do is go to the papers with her story.
When I say go to the papers I suggest taking them a story that will make not only the 407 ETR sound harsh and uncaring but also the MP’s. Remember, the MP’s are the ones that direct the law to be made. Also remember that the 407 ETR went to court to have the 407 ETR Act empowered in Ontario. So Di, your story should be as follows:
“407 ETR SURPRISES BANKRUPT DISABLED PERSON WITH PLATE DENIAL AND MP’S WILL NOT HELP”
The Toronto Sun is read by more people who will sympathy with you then anything; they also love to have a good battle. It may be enough to cause the MP’s to step in and take control of the highway again. Now here is the interesting part, Di says she went bankrupt and it was before the 407 ETR act established that the billing is void of bankruptcy. So I would also suggest contacting your trustee to see what they can establish on the issue.
It really just comes down to one company pushing the Ontario people to the breaking point and no one standing up to them. If we are to survive this I believe we need to give out MP’s a good kick in the pants so that they will act.
Please keep us up to date on what happens with this Di, there are many readers of the blog that will be rooting for you.
