Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to rise today to present a petition on behalf of my constituents.
This is the first time I have presented this petition. It deals with a practice of online gaming companies to implement planned obsolescence. If a consumer buys a product, they want to be able to continue to use it. The online gaming companies will withdraw the service if the consumer does not continue to use their server and Internet provider of choice.
We ask the government to investigate this process and protect consumer rights in the acquisition of gaming devices. Consumers have every right to expect a lifetime of service for the products they have paid for.
