I hate the government. I went to service ontario 4 times to try to register my car... each time they came up with some excuse. The signatures from seller didn't look like it matched, ok i go get paperwork resigned. Go back and they told me I need a photocopy of his ID? I'm ok weird but ok. Get photocopy of ID. I come back and they tell me again the signatures don't look like they match and I was missing a form. I leave come back a 4th time, the moment they said signature, I was like I'm going to absolutely loose my shit right now. Told them to get me a manager, manager was trying to give me an excuse that it's fraud protection. Im like the dude who sold me the car is a short old Italian with a quick anger and his lawyer liencese/his bar. Trust me you don't want him here. Finally they processed my paperwork. Now im semi street legal for next 10 days 😂. Now to past the new stupid ontario saftey test where they fucking xray your car and send photos to ministry...

State "services". All the responsibility is on you and you're a criminal if you can't force them to do their job
Ontario isn't a state, it's a province. Also people at service ontario technically don't work for the government of Ontario. They are subcontractors.
Yeah sorry for my americanisms. I had a similar experience trying to register a car after I moved to a new state. They demand all this paperwork from the dealership and the bank, etc. and it's all your responsibility to get in order. They don't care at all about helping you but charge you fines if you don't get it done fast enough
