Federal legislation and programs relating to consumer protection.: RG31-1/6-1975E-PDF
"Since 1967 there have been several new pieces of Canadian federal legislation dealing with consumer protection as well as amendments to existing legislation. The purpose of this booklet is to describe briefly both the new and the old legislation and other consumer programs. This booklet deals with major statutes and programs of direct interest to consumers but there are other statutes which make important indirect contributions to consumer protection which have not been dealt with. For example, there is no discussion of certain parts of the Criminal Code of Canada, the Canada Agricultural Products Standards Act, the Patent Act and the Trade Marks Act on the grounds that these acts are not primarily consumer legislation. Apart from this, no attempt has been made to summarize the large number of provincial laws concerned with consumer protection"--Introduction, page 3.
