I’m curious about everyone’s thoughts on this. Do we think it will affect Canadian influencers? Maybe not yet, but I’d like to believe it’s only a matter of time before a similar law finds its way up north… and oh man, that day will be DELICIOUS.

    Consumers will be able to report violations and it looks like consumers will be able to seek compensation. If Sarah has been paid to review a product, that’s now a violation. It looks like PR companies could face fines for violations. Let’s start a 60 day countdown clock. Meta and Amazon are facing GOV lawsuits for operating in anticompetitive ways. Fingers crossed that consumers report the frauds and they get slapped with a few $50,000 fines.
