The Office de la protection du consommateur recommends that you avoid signing any documents until you have decided to lease a particular vehicle. Contrary to popular belief, you do not have the right to cancel a signed contract if you change your mind within 10 days.

If merchants claim that your signature does not bind you to any commitment, you can ask them to write "no commitment from the consumer" on the document you are signing.

The information presented under the section Cancelling a contract provides further information on this topic.
