There is no way that they would ever legislate that the recommended price is fixed. If they do that does it also mean that the dealer can’t reduce the price to make deals? The law that stats the sticker price can’t be increased unless all advertising reflects that remains in place.
If this was a new law the internet would be full of info. There is not one single word.
Everybody needs to understand that the dealerships are not the manufacturer and can do what they want within their contracts.

This is the only legislation for car prices in Ontario. Nothing about using the recommended price.

Just passing along what I heard first hand from sales at Toyota. His exact words were “highly illegal”. Like I said, I don’t know of any legislation which backs this, and I’m not arguing with your statements or reasoning. However, I would guess that Toyota Canada has told dealerships (which I think they can do in Canada) not to mark up prices. Toyota probably doesn’t want to look bad by scalping the market. This is just a guess.
