Bob with Zack Spencer on Corus national radio today
Co-founder of CWB, Bob Lamb was on the radio show with Zack Spencer. This was a very good 1 hour show that discussed the history of the immobilizers issues, how the RIV operates and how the RIV lists are updated. Bob explained the political action that was done by everyone involved and how CarsWithoutBorders was the Enabler.
The show brought over 1,200 visits to our site from all across Canada and over 50 people signed our electronic petition which will be presented to the government.
Please continue supporting the site and telling your friends and family to sign our petition for fair car pricing and visit the forum.

I heard the broadcast and it went over great.
Zack appears to agree with the overall principle.
It’s a great way to get publicity and members.
Let’s hope that he interviews you again.

Robert:
In future interviews, I would focus on the present and the future. The November chaos is now in the past, and the whole mess is too confusing to explain to listeners in a short time. Stress that the goal of Cars without Borders is to provide Canadian car consumers with the freedom to get the best price no matter where they buy. Focusing on one point, and hammering it down with examples, works. And I would also be more positive - you stressed all the problems on importing a vehicle, instead of saying that it IS possible, that Cars without Borders can help.
I say this, by the way, in total admiration of what you and Serge have accomplished. And that was the most interesting one hour way to pass the distance driving between Barrie and Toronto!

Thank-you for your kind words. I also believe that most of our focus needs to be going forward. As of today though, the RIV and Transport Canada refuse to return our e-mails. I can’t help feeling that someone needs be held accountable for the mess they that was created, we need to remind Canadians of the past, so that it will never be repeated again! We followed the rules! They changed the rules at will!

The more e-mails, letters and phone calls, that they refuse to acknowledge, the more evidence, we have against them. I hope that everyone will keep a record, of all these. They may come in handy later on.
