If OMVIC determines a dealer's advertising to be false, what can they issue?

When OMVIC determines that a dealer's advertising is false, they have the authority to issue both a retraction order and a cease publication order. A retraction order requires the dealer to publicly retract the misleading information to prevent further consumer deception. This is crucial in maintaining the integrity of advertising and protecting potential buyers from being misled.

Additionally, a cease publication order prevents the dealer from continuing to distribute or share the false advertisement. This action helps to stop the misinformation from circulating and impacting consumers. By implementing these measures, OMVIC ensures that vehicle dealers adhere to advertising standards and maintain trust within the marketplace.

The other options do not encompass the complete set of authorities that OMVIC can impose regarding false advertising. An endorsement for correction may simply suggest a way to modify the advertisement without fully addressing the misinformation disseminated. Therefore, the best solution encompasses both a retraction of the false claims and an order to halt further misleading advertisements, which is why the combination of the retraction order and cease publication order is the appropriate response.
