Thank you, Pascal.
@cbcErica @cbcgopublic I have to say Erica that I appreciate your work. I read your investigative piece on the #advisor titles at the banks and other financial institutions, and it was telling. Something I had always been suspicious of for years till this was clearly spelled out to represent sales ppl.

All-in pricing is the law. When you see an advertised price for a specific vehicle, that is the price you should be paying, plus GST and financing costs. If you think you have been treated unfairly by an auto dealer contact AMVIC at 1-877-979-8100 or go to

So sorry to hear, Darcy. We’re getting a lot of complaints about @KiaCanada dealerships.
We had the exact experience with @KiaCanada in Ottawa - waited nearly a year for a new Telluride just to be told they oversold the 2022s, we were automatically being upgraded to a 2023 with loads of additional fees + they still couldn’t even confirm when the vehicle would arrive.
