Nothing feels better than to use law against law enforcers (in other words, scam the scammers).
How do we do that? By understanding what they do, how to do it and guidelines they follow.
I'm not sure Cain's title is or where he stands (maybe someone here knows) but I think he falls under something like this and if there has been a breech, things can get interesting yes?

Regulatory Enforcement Inspectors

Inspectors are designated by the Minister and carry a certificate of designation and a badge, which they must produce upon request. They have the most frequent and regular contact with entities regulated by the Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Their role is to:

promote compliance with the Motor Vehicle Safety Act by providing information on the regulations and safety standards (such as to clarify the requirements within a specific standard or test procedure). Verify compliance with the regulations by conducting selective (risk-informed) programs of inspections and testing of vehicles, tires and equipment used in the restraint of children and disabled persons;
conduct audits and reviews of companies’ self-certification documents and other relevant records;
ensure that companies are meeting their statutory and regulatory obligations in the event of a safety-related defect or a non-compliance;
take action to prevent non-complying vehicles or equipment with safety deficiencies from entering the market;
use prescribed risk assessment methodologies and a graduated approach to guide enforcement responses related to non-compliances with the Act or Regulations;
conduct administrative or penal investigations to obtain evidence, assemble requisite documentation and make recommendations as appropriate;
prepare documentation and reports recommending that the Minister, by order, require a company to give notice of non-compliance in the manner specified in the order; and
prepare a case report to recommend prosecution to the Public Prosecution Service of Canada (PPSC), if the company fails to give notice of non-compliance, pursuant to Section 10.1; assist the PPSC in the preparation of court proceedings; and, appear as witnesses during those proceedings.

Inspectors do not act as consultants to importers, Canadian or foreign manufacturers concerning the self-certification requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act, and do not provide product-specific advice beyond their audit and enforcement function or role.

An inspector may not be compelled to give testimony in any civil suit, with regard to information obtained by them in the discharge of their duties, without the Minister’s written permission.
Defect Investigators

Certain inspectors specialize in the documentation of public complaints and in the administrative defect investigation of alleged safety-related defects. Their role is to:

document public complaints and gather information from various sources concerning potential safety-related defects associated with the design, construction or functioning of regulated vehicles or equipment;
inform companies about the complaints and the results of their administrative defect investigation;
ensure that companies issue a Notice of Defect, in accordance with the procedures established by regulations, when a safety-related defect is confirmed;
proceed with an administrative investigation to determine whether the company was aware of the defect and failed to act within the time required;
prepare documentation and reports recommending that the Minister, by order, require a company to give notice of a defect in the manner specified in the order; and
prepare a case report to recommend prosecution to the Public Prosecution Service of Canada (PPSC) if the company fails to notice of defect, pursuant to Section 10, and/or is found to not have acted in the time required; assist the PPSC in preparing for court proceedings; and, appear as witnesses during those proceedings.

Inspectors do not intervene or negotiate with companies on behalf of individual consumers with respect to service, warranties or other disputes.

An inspector may not be compelled to give testimony in any civil suit, with regard to information obtained by them in the discharge of their duties, without the Minister’s written permission.
