Extract¶
Substantially correct with nuance. Ontario's Professional Engineers Act Section 40(2) provides fines up to $10,000 for first offence and $25,000 for subsequent offences for misusing the title. Section 40(1) provides up to $25,000 for first offence for unlicensed practice. The $25,000 figure is accurate but represents different penalty categories.
