Canadian Tire has faced significant legal scrutiny, most notably a proposed consumer privacy class-action lawsuit launched in mid-2026 regarding a major data breach. The lawsuit alleges that the corporation failed to adequately protect sensitive customer personal information, which was allegedly compromised by unauthorized parties, and failed to properly communicate the true scope of the breach to affected individuals. Additionally, Canadian Tire faced severe legal penalties for deceptive marketing, pleading guilty to 74 counts brought by Quebec's consumer protection office regarding misleading discount and pricing practices, resulting in a fine of nearly 1.3 million dollars.
