He literally told the OP to contact investigators and caseworkers at Service Alberta (citing the Fair Trading Act) "ASAP" to help him sort this out. That's not checking out their site for background information - his advice is to get the government involved as soon as possible. Based on the original post, do you really agree with MBates that this is at the stage where investigators from the government need to intervene?
Really, what harm is going to come of calling them? At the very least OP gets to explain what happened, explain how dumb he feels, and ask for some guidance so that he doesn't wind up making this worse. OP already admits he feels like an idiot, so if there's an agency out there willing to hold his hand somewhat, great! Not all people are smooth talking rascal owners like you, so some extra help from an agency setup to deal with stuff like this is a great resource to use.
