The show ticket sales platform Billets.ca and its president, Éric Bussières, are the target of criminal proceedings reporting 26 infractions.
The Consumer Protection Office (OPC) announced Wednesday, by way of a press release, the notification of 26 violations by the Director of Criminal and Penal Prosecutions (DPCP) against Billets.ca and its president.
The Billets.ca platform will be liable to a fine provided for by law, for each violation, ranging between $2,000 and $100,000 and between $600 and $15,000 for its president if they are found guilty.
The OPC criticizes them, in particular, for having resold show tickets at a price higher than that announced by the seller authorized by the producer of the show, we read in the press release.
He also accuses them of having resold a show ticket which was not in their possession or under their control.
The alleged offenses are believed to have been committed between November 2022 and September 2023.
