What actions can OMVIC take if a dealer's advertising is found to be false or misleading?

  1. Issue an order requiring the dealer to cease publication

  2. Issue a retraction or correction

  3. Place a temporary ban on the dealer's advertisements

  4. Both A and B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

If OMVIC finds that a dealer's advertising is false or misleading, they can take both the actions listed in options A and B. This means they can issue an order requiring the dealer to immediately stop publishing the false or misleading advertisement and can also require the dealer to issue a retraction or correction to the public. Option C, placing a temporary ban on the dealer's advertisements, is incorrect. This is not listed as a separate action that OMVIC can take, but rather is part of the potential outcomes of options A and B. Option D is the most comprehensive and accurate answer as it includes both the individual actions that OMVIC can take.
