Across Canada, a quiet but dangerous shift is happening. Townships and municipalities are weaponizing the Administrative Monetary Penalty (AMP) system, turning what was intended as an efficient alternative to minor court infractions into a tool for illegal, punitive, and often devastating fines. These fines are issued without fair process and are being used to seize homes, cripple small property owners, and erode fundamental Canadian legal protections.
We’re drawing a line in the sand — and taking this battle to court.
This lawsuit isn’t just about Wainfleet. It’s about you, your property, and the rights of every Canadian.
The AMP system was introduced to streamline the legal process for minor infractions like parking tickets, allowing municipalities to handle these matters internally and avoid overburdening the superior court system.
But what started as a cost-saving measure has turned into a nationwide scandal.
Here’s what’s really happening:
Townships are creating massive, punitive fines — sometimes $10,000, $50,000, or even over $100,000 — using AMP bylaws that were never intended for such penalties.
There is no access to a real court. Instead, a township staffer acts as the first “screening officer,” followed by an adjudicator — often a paralegal paid by the same municipality that issued the fine.
This violates due process. The system lacks judicial independence, transparency, and fairness.
If you don’t pay, your home is at risk. These municipalities have the power to migrate AMP fines directly onto your property tax bill, and if left unpaid, they can and will seize your home.
This is not speculation. It is already happening.
And it is illegal.
We are taking legal action to challenge this system and stop the abuse of AMPs before it becomes irreversible.
This lawsuit is not just about one case — it’s about creating precedent law to protect Canadians from similar injustices. We are exposing the unconstitutional misuse of power by municipal governments and demanding a return to proper legal process and access to impartial courts.
If we win, it sets a precedent across Canada. If we don’t fight, it gets worse for all of us.
This could be your home, your business, your community next.
Have you received an outrageous fine from your town with no way to appeal to a real judge?

Are you worried about your property being seized for a bylaw violation?
Then you’re already part of this fight — whether you realize it or not.
