- English Canada needs better consumer protection laws
- Canada needs a nationalised alternative to Visa/MasterCard like a Interac (There's debit but also add credit) or Digital Dollar

What they should be doing instead is give a percentage discount for not using a credit card.
Every time you pay with your credit card it's like you're paying a 2-3% tax to the US. The credit card company gives you a part of that back as "rewards" to motivate customers to continue using it but really it's just raising prices for everyone even those who don't pay by credit card. Meanwhile Interac's processing fees are significantly lower.
We're sending hundreds of millions of dollars to the US by using our credit cards to pay for everything. I wish people realized that.
Kind of the same thing. But it does sound nicer.
I'm all for credit card charges. Without them people not using credit cards are subsidizing credit card users.
And it happens to be.. that poorer people use credit cards less, it's a bit perverse.
I'd drop credit cards in a heartbeat if I thought it was safe to use direct debit cards out in the world or cash made a comeback.
Like fuck am I going to give Rogers or Bell direct access to my bank account. They can barely keep their services up in good weather when they aren't nuking their own DNS or harpooning fiber with post hole diggers.
If itβs anti-consumer then you should automatically assume Rogers is either doing it, will do it, or did it and got caught but the CRTC did nothing.
Please fewer videos or at least post transcripts. Im not giving youtube clicks but this seems important.
Sounds like Rogers is asking me to change to another provider
I use a Rogers Mastercard for my billing. Does it apply to their own credit card? π€

The real answers to Quebec separatism has always been for English Canada to be more like Quebec.
Except for antimuslim laws.
