They are on Martel's borrowers list but never borrowed a cent
List claims company borrowed $2.77 million, but they say they never had any dealings with Martel

Greg Martel
A Victoria home design firm was left stunned this week to find it had been included in a list of companies to which mortgage broker Greg Martel claims to have loaned money.
Java Designs, owned by Kyle Leggett, got a shock when an email from PricewaterhouseCoopers, the firm overseeing the receivership of Martel and his companies, demanded repayment of nearly $2.77 million in loans and interest.
Leggett and his wife, Tara, who together own homebuilder Casa Milano Properties, said they still can’t believe it because neither of them have ever done any business with Martel and did not take out a loan with him.
“I can’t believe what we’ve had to deal with, it’s been a very stressful few days,” said Tara Leggett. She said she still can’t get over the audacity Martel had to include their company on a list prepared for the receiver.
The receiver is working to get to the bottom of what happened to about $226 million that about 1,200 investors entrusted to Martel.
“It’s so incredibly false and incorrect — we’ve never even exchanged a dime,” Tara Leggett said. “This is really unsettling, my stress level has gone through the roof.”
The “borrowers list” included in the receiver’s fourth report released late Thursday includes a series of what the receiver calls “investment opportunities” that includes the name of the borrower, how much they have borrowed and what it was for.
The list appears to include several companies that never borrowed a dime.
Two long-established Victoria developers who appear on the list, but asked not to be named, confirmed they have never borrowed from Martel.
“I can’t believe he had the audacity to throw somebody, some really good people, under the bus for absolutely no reason whatsoever,” she said. They were reassured by PWC that they are unlikely to be drawn into the Martel affair as there are no financial records that the loan ever existed.
PricewaterhouseCoopers would not comment on what it makes of the accuracy of the borrowers list. In its report, however, it noted it asked Martel about the list during a video call. Martel claimed for confidentiality reasons the borrowers list does not include the true names of the borrowers.
Martel also told the receiver he could not provide borrowers list details or loan agreements as a result of being locked out of the software platform used to keep track of it.
As a result, the receiver intends to file an application for contempt of court today in Vancouver during a scheduled court date.

Bike Patrol Unit arrests bike thief
West Shore
2023-06-12
File #2023-11001
On June 7, the West Shore RCMP received a complaint from a resident of View Royal advising their children’s bike had been stolen from their home located near Burnett Rd in View Royal.
The responding officer obtained home surveillance footage of a female suspect stealing the bike. A few days later on June 9, officers from the West Shore RCMP Bike Unit were patrolling the E & N Rail Trail near Helmcken Rd when they spotted the same female suspect.
Bike patrol officers arrested the suspect for theft, she was later released on an Undertaking and is set to appear in court next month. Officers continue to keep an eye out for the stolen bike which has not yet been found.
The Bike Unit routinely patrols the trail systems in the West Shore. It’s a good idea to make note of your bicycle serial number as officers will run serial numbers of recovered bikes in attempts to reunite them with owners.
