The scenario is simple, we were contracted to provide service to develop a website. Client was unhappy with a large delay that occurred due to a cross Canada move however they were aware of it from the start. The website was at 90-95% completion, when an email was sent to us demanding the site be up the following day or they were hiring someone else (which they already had done). In addition to the outstanding fees these men requested the registration of 10 additional domain names for this project in order to prevent competitors from securing these domains, and then after defaulting on their invoice for the completed work they refused to pay for these additional domains that had been requested (these represent cash out of pocket losses for us in addition to lost labour fees) In my opinion these men lack integrity and cannot be taken at their word, I would not trust them to honestly disclose details in a real estate transaction,

My name is Adam Walker and Richard Goldney and Ron Mehan came to me to assist them after the complainant Brian Kinash (thewebstudio.ca and kdmi.ca) and Goldney/Mehan became non-productive. From what I can see, Goldney/Mehan approached Brian Kinash to build a website for recreational real estate and paid a 50% deposit on the work. They also hired him to purchase their domain names. My company was then hired to keep on top of Brian, as he was unresponsive and after many months had yet to deliver on the project. In the following months Kinash failed to produce any true progress, so I suggested that I would build a new site. 2 weeks later it was complete and we wanted the domain names to point to the new site. Kinash didn't hesitate and pointed them and made it appear that he was willing to transfer them as well. Then some time after the site had traffic and clients on it, Kinash took down the domain names, replacing the website with Kinash's own website competing directly with Goldney/Mehan. This suffered Goldney/Mehan considerable losses. I continue to work with both Goldney and Mehan and neither has had any delay in paying their bills. The are both upstanding Realtors in the area with many years experience, and Goldney having lived and supported community projects locally for decades is considered a pillar in the community.
