And I thought it was bizarre when I heard a rumor that I had died. At least there was no government involvement in that one...that I know of.
Maybe they knew he looked like Jesus?
They expected his mother to pay the rest of his tickets? I didn't think they could transfer debts to your loved ones.
His estate means the assets he left after his death. This is in no way a transferral of debt, and is common practice everywhere.
Seems like they wanted the estate to pay, not the mother. Sounds pretty normal if that's the case.
Probably a Quebec thing . That province has completely different laws than the rest of Canada.
Some laws are different in Quebec, but having the estate pay off owed debts is not different from elsewhere in Canada.
"The Collector of Fines" sounds like the title of an A24 movie
