   Why would you hope anything? $5000 is the maximum amount a court can   
   award, and there's absolutely no incentive to pay that until a court   
   orders such, better to represent yourself and see if the judge will   
   knock it down.   
      
   >Then another letter and another and another and another and another   
   >and pretty soon you're out over a million bucks because you believed the cap   
   >was 5 grand.   
      
   This is where having a lawyer is useful, since the way the Canadian law   
   is written, the $5000 cap can actually cover multiple offenses. Neat.

   So don't pay, fight it and make it cost them.
