B.C. Unveils Consumer Protections | Vancouver News
Description
British Columbia just dropped major consumer protections: subscription services must now clearly explain cancellation steps and give 30–60 days’ notice before renewals—no hidden fees, no strings. Door-to-door sales for big-ticket items like AC units or security systems are officially banned to stop high-pressure scams. Plus, starting August 2027, residents can get one free credit report and score monthly, plus free security freezes—all to fight fraud and empower consumers. Violators face steep fines up to $50K for companies and $5K for individuals. Fair play wins.
