Small claims rarely award punitive damages because of its limitations. They’ll just tell you to take it to upper courts. Small claims is like traffic ticket line. Each person gets 3 miutes, and bam the judgment. To appeal you have to double the amount of what you’re suing for.. Ohhh wait , but in fucking Canada we bring out per husky, hockey stick and 1972 picture of team Canada to prove we’re right…
