This wikibook from People's Law School describes some of the most common consumer problems faced by British Columbians and in particular by newcomers to the province. It aims to help you:
- understand the laws that protect you when you buy items or hire someone to provide a service, such as home repairs,
- learn your options when someone owes you money, or you owe someone money, and
- learn how to identify scams and frauds and how to avoid them.
