6 Feb 2026 La Société Canadian Tire ltéeCanadian Tire: CAD 1.29m in fines over false reference prices in Quebec €798,827
From April to October 2021 the Office de la protection du consommateur (OPC, Quebec's consumer protection office) checked the prices of seven advertised products in flyers, online and in three stores in the greater Montréal area: the regular prices cited as the reference were actually charged in only a very small share of sales. Canadian Tire pleaded guilty, for five of the products, to stating false reference prices contrary to s. 225(b) of the Loi sur la protection du consommateur (LPC, Quebec Consumer Protection Act) and must pay fines totalling CAD 1,287,550 including costs on 74 counts.
Was-prices and discount claims must be based on prices at which the goods were actually sold in meaningful volumes.
