In Battleford, Saskatchewan, a taxidermy dispute is raising eyebrows. Brennan Huard, a local taxidermist, is accused of throwing out a customer’s items after being paid over $130,000. The customer, Tim Cimmer, also invested in their taxidermy company partnership. Brennan claims he needs space for new clients, but Tim argues he’s being scammed and overcharged.
Brennan’s message to Tim was clear. He needed to discard items in storage to make room for other customers. Brennan stated, “I have several pieces in storage for you, and I can no longer continue storing them, so I have no choice but to discard things ASAP. If you wish to retain these items, please let me know so that we can satisfy payment arrangements and arrange things to be gathered from storage once the payment has been made.”
Brennan attached an invoice with interest charges and mentioned that abusive language would not be tolerated. He insisted that Tim should pay to retain the items, or they would be discarded.
Tim’s response was firm. He accused Brennan of theft and threatened legal action. Tim stated, “You are being sued, and a lien is being put on all your properties. There is a default judgment going in your name for not complying with the court from mediation. YOU WILL BE CHARGED WITH THEFT, IF THERE ARE ANY HORNS OR PROPERTY MISSING FROM all the property you have in your possession from all our personal items you have. You can return these items immediately or charges will be pursued.”
Brennan Huard is charging Mr. Cimmer around $330,000 in interest that he refuses to specify. Despite Tim’s continuous requests for an explanation, Brennan has not provided a clear breakdown of these charges. Tim had already paid around $130,000 for the work and job, making the additional interest charges highly questionable.
The situation highlights Brennan’s questionable practices. Tim’s accusations suggest Brennan is taking advantage of customers such as himself and overcharging them. The $130,000 payment should cover storage and partnership costs, not lead to threats of discarded items.
Tim Cimmer’s stand against Brennan is a fight for fairness. Customers should not be pressured into paying extra fees after such a significant investment. Brennan’s actions show a lack of professionalism and respect for his clients. Tim’s stand serves as a reminder that customers should not be taken advantage of, especially after investing large sums of money.
Brennan Huard’s handling of this situation raises serious concerns about his business ethics. Customers deserve better treatment and transparency. Brennan’s actions appear to be a scam, overcharging Tim and failing to respect their partnership agreement. Both sides are now preparing for a legal confrontation as no agreement had been made.
