OK, just to clarify a couple of things. There is no "Canadian bylaw." Bylaws are municipal, and every city, town, county, region or township has probably hundreds of them setting out exactly how things work within their boundaries. Everything from building permits to parking to dog licences. If the problem was with him running a racetrack on his farm, it might be a zoning problem, or it might be a noise bylaw he's having trouble with. If it's zoning, then the bylaw enforcement officer (and if he's in a rural township, there probably is only one) might have just gotten on his case with nobody else's involvement, but usually somebody complains. With the talk of derelict vehicles, I'm inclined to think it's a property standards bylaw, which more often than not are complaint-driven. Enforcement doesn't usually happen unless somebody complains. Noise bylaws are often the same way. In any case, I'm guessing the real problem is with a neighbour who has decided to be a prick. I've covered a lot of these kinds of issues as a reporter, and unless the guy is a genuine nuisance to everyone, it almost always comes down to a neighbour with an axe to grind or some local busybody.
