SGF Group (Legal Advisors and Cannabis Consultants) announces the launch of a class action in court on behalf of Gabriel Bélanger against the Société Québécoise du Cannabis (SQDC).
The class action request alleges that the SQDC does not comply with the Consumer Protection Act (CPA).
The plaintiff in the class action, Gabriel Bélanger, is determined to present in Superior Court the fact that he is obliged by the state company responsible for the sale of recreational cannabis in Quebec to make blind purchases when he orders cannabis products through his website.
In fact, all cannabis products that are sold online and which have the mention “rotating variety” in their description sheet do not comply with the CPA, since it provides that consumers must have access to a description including the characteristics and technical specifications.
By not allowing you to know what variety is in the product when ordering, the SQDC forces consumers to make blind purchases.
The class action includes all individuals who have purchased cannabis in the “dried flower” and “pre-rolled” categories whose variety displayed on the SQDC website is “rotating variety” since October 17, 2018.
