I cannot imagine the anguish for a House Buyer after a 27 year fight with #Tarion ending in the taking of his life by #Suicide. That is so wrong! Shame on all Politicians who had the power to protect New House Buyers & their families but instead chose to sell out to lobbyists!
MPP @MikeSchreiner Even though your @OntarioGreens party only holds 2 seats in the Legislature, you & MPP Aislinn Clancy
hold immeasurable #Power! Simply join with Mainstream Media to Teach/Warn past/present New House/Condo Buyers in #Ontario what #Tarion #monopoly really is!
It sure does sound like the Auditor General claimed #Tarion did not act for New House Buyer Consumers as the backstop for the Builder's warranty, their important core job so @MaritStiles, @RakocevicT, @OntarioNDP who was Tarion acting for? #consumerprotection not in Ontario! @tvo
I'm convinced every party pretends to care for the People of #Ontario but in reality it seems they may care more about fundraising donations from those they can appease. MPP Calandra, on the record, spilled the 💰beans! I wonder how much #Tarion donated for turning blind eyes?

@MaritStiles It's almost as if Doug could have been talking to himself in a mirror during the May 7, 2018 debate showing the person he really was when he asked "when did you lose your way?" #onpoli
Only 83% Positive? Am I wrong to surmise #Tarion is content in publicizing a whopping 17% failure rate in Consumer Protection? @MikeSchreiner can you please look into why 17% had a 'negative experience' Why not visit home buyers to see for yourself, some live near Queens Park!!

There can be no such thing as Affordable Housing if New Houses are poorly built & worse come with very questionable Warranty Protection from #Monopoly #Tarion. Since 1976 Past/Present @OntarioPCParty & @OntLiberal have kept very quiet on this travesty! @torontomike @MikeSchreiner
What's worse? Finding out you bought a New House from an unlicensed Builder or finding out data in the Builder Directory you used to research your Builder had been corrupted by #Tarion meant to conceal true Builder Performance & fool buyer. I CHOOSE #2!

This very knowledgeable Consumer Advocate in 2024 made mention of a @TorontoStar article re the inaccurate, misleading & dangerous Builder Directory. Seems this CEO who is now responsible for its data, chose to deflect instead of answering. @SheilaWang_ can you investigate why?
Congratulations @torontomike on reaching your 2,000th episode! Where have the last 14 years gone since that first episode with Rosie, back in September 2012?
In this 2000th episode of Toronto Mike'd, Mike chats with Bob McCown about his long career in sports media, and his continued recovery following a series of strokes.

Congrats @torontomike on hitting it out of the park for your 2,000th show! What a great surprise to find the episode would feature the Past and Present preeminent voices of Toronto at the same time!
Home Run!!! Touch 'em all Mike!

Are you f'ng kidding me? Tarion CEO has no business at all socializing with Builders giving out Homeowners' Choice Awards when many buyers are fighting for warranty rights. Tarion works for New House Buyers! Why not give out awards based on Homeowners' Choice for BAD Builder?
Who pays for Tarion’s builder awards and ceremonies? Tarion is primarily funded through new home enrolment fees, costs ultimately borne by purchasers. How much is spent celebrating builders, and how does that spending benefit the consumers Tarion is supposed to protect? #Tarion #ConsumerProtection

How is it possible #Tarion CEO finds plenty of time to travel TWO long hours to Collingwood to socialize with Builders at their convention yet will not find the time to take a 5 minute walk to help this New House Buyer who is obviously in distress over her poorly built new house?

@hcraontario's auditors, KPMG, advised HCRA that they would not be standing for reappointment as HCRA external auditor. This seems extraordinary. What is the reason for this, Min .@stcrawford2 ?
@RakocevicT @StephenBlais @MikeSchreiner @ONconsumer @shanedingman @SheilaWang_
Change will never happen for New House Buyers until all 'DONATIONS' from 'BIG MONEY PLAYERS' are banned from all political parties. This is the only way to eliminate the ultimate Gov't's Consumer Protection CONFLICT OF INTEREST!
A huge thank you to .@TheTorontoSun editor @AdrienneBatra for continually giving voice to this selfless Consumer Advocate .@ReformTarion
torontosun.com/opinion/colum…
Proud of my friend Barbara Captijn @ReformTarion for her important op-ed in @TorontoSun. ⤵️
She breaks down why consumers need strong regulators & how #HCRA is failing new Ontario home buyers.
A year after a scathing Auditor General report 19 of 24 recommendations are still pending. A must-read!

There have been one too many expensive Audits of Tarion already with not much changed. What is needed is for Premier @fordnation to step up! Call for an official OPP investigation into #Tarion! Dr. Earl knew the truth! Many New House Buyers know the truth! @OntarioNDP @OntLiberal
It sure does sound like the Auditor General claimed #Tarion did not act for New House Buyer Consumers as the backstop for the Builder's warranty, their important core job so @MaritStiles, @RakocevicT, @OntarioNDP who was Tarion acting for? #consumerprotection not in Ontario! @tvo

Too bad I knew nothing about the AG investigation of Tarion back in 2018-2019. I would have definitely contacted her and provided every piece of the undeniable deceitful Tarion puzzle she needed for proof.
Did you know Ontario Auditor General released a scathing report on Tarion a few months later? Page 8 dealt with Builder Directory missing critical information such as Building Code Violations, important info House Buyers should have b4 choosing a builder to purchase from. Fraud?
$685,000 budget for the 'Internal' Ont New Home Ombuds! For What? Treating Home Owners fairly should not cost a cent, whether it be after the 2019 scathing AG report or today in 2026. This is not Value for Money for buyers unless the Ombuds visits each and every owner's house!
Tarion is on LinkedIn promoting its Ombuds. But Tarion won't accept comments to that post - we wonder why.
Here is key information related to Tarion's Ombuds from it's 2025 annual report. What more do you need to know about Tarion's Ombuds?
#onpoli #EndTarionMonopolyNOW
"Tarion was supposed to be the backstop for the Builders' warranties." Why would the former Ontario Auditor General utter these words in 2019 unless she had uncovered the troubling truth which is still being suppressed from New House Buyers by past/present Ontario Gov'ts #onpoli
AI says Tarion is a consumer protection organization. ✅
Consumers: “Great! Can we comment?”
Tarion: Comments disabled. 🔒
Consumers: “Can we meet?”
Tarion: Please refer to our website.
Consumer protection works better when consumers are actually part of the conversation. 😉

Melania Trump tried to bully me into silence because she didn’t like what I had to say about her.
Shouldn’t our First Lady have more important things to worry about?
When a company such as #Tarion 'sponsors' ie pays for an interview (mentioned at the end) with its own CEO allowing him to spew lies, it is simply propaganda meant to deceive same home buyers Tarion is supposed to but does not always protect! @globalnews

Today is @ninatangri's birthday. I wonder if she is still 'blown away' by the ongoing ridiculously high Tarion Salaries? What is really difficult to understand is not the salaries but that @OntarioPCParty has left #Tarion alone to wrongly profit off defenseless New Home Buyers.
SIX years later, I wonder if .@ninatangri still thinks it's funny & difficult to understand the high salaries #Tarion & now #HCRA Execs continue to reward themselves with, while depriving New House Buyers of their lawful #ONHWPA Warranty Protection? @OntarioPCParty @RakocevicT
