Ontario Raises Maximum Penalty for Illegal Ticket Resale to $25,000

Ontario Premier Doug Ford calls the move a "massive win" for fans in Ontario, after imposing a ban on the resale of tickets above face value in April.

The Ontario government is once again cracking down on the ticket resale market.

The Ford government has announced that it will be raising the maximum penalty for reselling tickets above face value from $10,000 to $25,000, more than doubling the fine. The change is meant to discourage businesses and individuals from violating recent legislation in the province that caps ticket resale at face value and will take effect on June 10, just ahead of the FIFA World Cup's arrival in Toronto.
