2. Which body is responsible for administering and enforcing the
MVDA?
A. Ministry of Transportation
B. Ontario Provincial Police
C. Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council (OMVIC)

❖ Explanation: OMVIC is the delegated administrative authority
responsible for administering and enforcing the MVDA on behalf
of the Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery and
Procurement. OMVIC handles registration, inspections,
complaints, investigations, and discipline. The Ministry of
Transportation deals with driver and vehicle licensing, while the
OPP handles criminal matters. Consumer Protection Ontario
provides general consumer information but does not regulate
motor vehicle dealers.

while maintaining consumer representation in governance. The
board oversees OMVIC's strategic direction and regulatory
activities.

to OMVIC for each vehicle sold or leased?
A. $5
B. **$10**
C. $25
D. $50

required to remit $10 to OMVIC for each vehicle sold or leased,
including fleet and "as is" transactions. These funds are remitted
annually with the dealer's registration renewal fee. The
transaction fee may be passed along to the customer, though it
cannot be added on top of an advertised all-in price.
5. What is the minimum age requirement to become a registered
motor vehicle dealer in Ontario?
A. 16
B. 18
C. 21
D. 25

requirements including financial responsibility, past conduct
suitability, and completion of required certification.
6. Which of the following is NOT a class of dealer registration under
the MVDA?
A. General dealer
B. Retail dealer
C. Wholesaler
D. Lease finance dealer
❖ Explanation: The MVDA specifies several classes of dealer
registration, including general dealer (new and used vehicles or
used only), broker, outside Ontario dealer, wholesaler, exporter,
lease finance dealer, and fleet lessor. "Retail dealer" is not a
recognized class; general dealers handle retail sales. Knowing the
correct classes is essential for registration and compliance.
7. To whom can an applicant appeal if OMVIC issues a proposal to
refuse registration?
A. Ontario Superior Court
B. OMVIC Board of Directors
C. Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT)
D. Ministry of the Attorney General
❖ Explanation: If OMVIC issues a proposal to refuse, revoke, or
suspend registration, the applicant or registrant may appeal to the
Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT), an independent adjudicative body.
The appeal must typically be filed within 15 days of receiving the
proposal. LAT provides an independent review of OMVIC's
decisions.
