Power of Collections?

If an individual does not go bankrupt but does owe money to unsecured creditors (i.e. credit cards now in collections) can that individual purchase a used car that is less than $5650 without the fear that those unsecured creditors will win a judgement to take possession of the car to pay off the bad debt?

If you purchase a car that is worth less than the allowable exemptions in your province, then you are correct, this would be an asset that is exempt from seizure.
