Stop Joe logo over city of Calgary suburb

This website exists to help protect the community. Joe has damaged many home-owners and tradespeople in Winnipeg, Calgary and Airdrie and it is our desire to make it as difficult as possible for him to continue to do this in other markets in Canada. Joe has been active in Calgary and the surrounding area from early 2023 to present. We need to make the public aware to protect people. If a media organization would be willing to do a story on this it would be a huge help to the cause and would help protect other home-owners and tradespeople from being damaged.

Some people respond and say “why don’t you just call the police” or “call a lawyer” but it is not that simple. Joe has set himself up in such a way that he is very hard to convict criminally. Technically he has done nothing that would qualify as a criminal offence unless you could prove intent which is extremely difficult. If you make an agreement to pay someone and then are unable to pay that person this is not a criminal offence. If you set up a contract with someone that has no dates and then you inform them the project will be done next year this isn’t criminal. Small claims court can be helpful to get a ruling that demands payment but it does not guarantee funds. Each person who has been affected by Joe has to make an individual choice wether or not to sue and of course it takes money and time to sue so most don’t bother.

You can help us spread the word by telling a few friends or posting about this page on social media and using the hashtag #makejoefamous. It is amazing what can happen when the community comes together to fight against bad actors. Please spread this around to your family and friends. We hope that someone from the media would take interest in this and consider running a story about one of the home-owners or tradespeople who have been damaged by Joe. Please fill in the contact form if you have any questions or are interested in helping spread this story.
