WHEN AND HOW TO MAKE A CLAIM - IMPORTANT DATES:

To seek compensation from the settlement, the Dollarama Settlement Class Members must complete and submit the online Claim Form by no later than February 14, 2025.




WHAT COMPENSATION YOU CAN RECEIVE FROM THE SETTLEMENT:

Each Dollarama Settlement Class Member who timely submits a valid Claim Form may obtain a payment in the form of an Interac E-Transfer equal to the Distribution Fund divided by the total number of Approved Claimants, between a minimum of $3.00 and a maximum of $10.00 each, depending on the total number of Approved Claimants. Each Approved Claimant can only get one Interac E-Transfer regardless of the number of products subject to Ecofees they purchased from Dollarama during the Class Period. If the total number of Approved Claimants results in Interac E-Transfers worth less than $3.00 each, no Interac E-Transfers will be made and the Distribution Fund will be paid to charities approved by the Court.

HOW TO QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATION:

To qualify for compensation, Dollarama Settlement Class Members are required to complete and submit a Claim Form by February 14, 2025. In the Claim Form, Dollarama Settlement Class Members must attest under penalty of perjury in which city(ies) and province(s) or territory(ies) they purchased a product subject to Ecofees from Dollarama in Québec between December 11, 2019, and July 4, 2023, or elsewhere in Canada between May 29, 2021, and July 4, 2023, as well as the approximate month/year of purchase. Each Dollarama Settlement Class Member may submit only one (1) Claim Form.

In order to receive any compensation from the settlement, a Settlement Class Member must have a valid e-mail address and a bank account capable of receiving payments via Interac E-Transfer, as E-Transfer is the only method through which compensation will be sent. Compensation can only be collected for a period of thirty (30) days after the Interac E-Transfer is sent.

Members of the Dollarama Settlement Class, excluding those who validly opted out, may qualify for compensation under the settlement.

SUMMARY OF THE CASE:

The Plaintiff alleged that Dollarama did not properly display the price of products subject to Ecofees and charged a price or Ecofees higher than the one displayed or allowed by law. Dollarama denies any and all wrongdoing or liability. Plaintiff and Dollarama negotiated and ultimately agreed to the settlement after the lawyers for all parties, assisted by an experienced mediator, extensively evaluated the facts and law relating to this case, and took into account a variety of factors such as the burdens and expense of the lawsuit, and the risk and uncertainty of litigation.
