The [http://canlii.ca/t/8495 ''Personal Property Security Act''] creates special rights where the collateral meets the definition of “consumer goods”. These are “goods that are used or acquired for use primarily for personal, family or household purposes” ([https://www.canlii.org/en/bc/laws/stat/rsbc-1996-c-359/latest/rsbc-1996-c-359.html#sec1_smooth section 1]). These special rights apply to “security leases” of consumer goods, but not to “true leases”; for more on this distinction, see the Leases section.
