Canadian Anti-Scalping Regulations

Canadian anti-scalping regulations prohibit reselling tickets to events, such as concerts or sports games, at higher prices than their original face value. These laws aim to prevent scalpers from exploiting consumers by charging excessive markups. Depending on the province, selling tickets above face value may be illegal, subject to fines, or regulated through licensing requirements. The rules also often restrict the use of automated software or bots that buy large quantities of tickets to resell at inflated prices. Overall, these regulations seek to promote fair access to tickets and prevent unfair practices in secondary ticket markets.
