Sounds like you were forced into it.

Yup. Echoing what the sibling said - these are institutionally entrenched corpos, not sure if it's even possible to boycott them. Probably can deprive them from some profit but they aren't nearly as exposed as say the grocery retailers.

Sun Life has their grubby hands on dentalcare payments from the government.

Yeah, I couldn't believe NDP went along with this shit. Getting new gov't medical care services provided by private financial corpo is top noliberal bullshit. I didn't pay attention to the details of the implementation at the time.
