Comment Not possible in Canada (Score 1) 378
Certainly in all the most populous areas of Canada this is not allowed: BC, Ontario, QB. Sony don't have the choice here, the Supreme court has already ruled in a similar case.
"Canada's highest court ruled Friday that British Columbia consumers can pursue class action lawsuits even after signing contracts that appear to waive that right.
In a 5-4 ruling, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that B.C.'s consumer protection law allows customers to get past clauses in service contracts that say disputes must be resolved by private arbitration." ht tp://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2011/03/18/bc-supreme-ruling-telus-class-action.html
Good luck trying this here Sony, the courts would just kick it out.
