And while I have managed to scratch and claw a few thousand out of Patrick by having the Saskatchewan constabulary occasionally seize whatever is in his credit union account, what I've collected does not come close to making up for the accruing interest over that time.
In any event, I'm pretty sure Patrick is now on the clock to fill out and return the aforementioned mandatory financial questionnaire as served on him by the Saskatchewan Sheriffs, the failure to do so having fairly unpleasant and expensive consequences, up to and possibly including some very serious people showing up at his father's Lloydminster residence with a truck and a warrant to take everything in sight that belongs to Patrick. We'll see if it comes to that. If history regarding Patrick's non-compliance with court orders is any judge, it very well might.

Can't wait until Ken Ross - a hillbilly conservative who loves the police - screams at the Saskatchewan Sheriffs that they're "doing the work of the devil" as they repossess his idiot son's wrestling belts and stacks of slightly soiled Penthouse magazines.
"Slightly"?
While the image of a truck and a bunch of SK Sheriffs showing up at the Ross family home is an appealing image, I suspect strongly that it would be very difficult to identify what - if anything - in the house belongs to Patrick. Ken could easily claim it's all his stuff. (Not to say this would be smart - as it would effectively draw father into the picture quite directly, and I suspect the legal wrangling would not be fun for him after that)
Regardless, I suspect such an expedition would come away empty-handed.
MgS: I'm not as pessimistic as you are, as I believe lying to constabulary who show up at your door with a warrant could end very, very badly. As a thought experiment, let's say Patrick himself was present when that happened -- could he simply claim that all those Edmonton Elks and Oilers jerseys and replica WWE belts belonged to his father? And that not a single thing in the house belonged to him?
I just don't see that being a workable dodge.
Just imagine Ken yelling at the constabulary: "YES, THAT COLLECTION OF 300 HENTAI DVDS BELONGS TO ME!!! YOU LEAVE THOSE UNDER PATRICK'S BED WHERE YOU FOUND THEM!!!"
THIS is the laugh I needed today
