Canadian Tire does not in fact store the information because 75% of the employees don't give a shit so they select whatever name comes up unless you appear to be supiscious or act rudely which it appears that the majority of you begin you return process as....So Fuck of and get a life if you want to really stick it to the man run for prime minister and shoot yourself!

I see we have another Canadian Tire employee in our midst. Shoot for the stars, boy! With that attitude you'll make Canadian Tire manager in no time.

Ok, I'm really curious, are you really complaining because you had to show ID to return a purchase. I'm not at all defending CT at all, I think they are complete assholes. But first off, you noticed in the parking lot the shit in the box was not packaged like it should have been, but didn't notice this in the store before you purchased the item? Secondly, who gives a shit if they ask for photo ID, although they shouldn't need it if you have a receipt, the only reason I can think for this, was that you were returning the item minutes after leaving the store, and maybe they were afraid you took shit out of the box or something I don't know. I will tell you I used to work for CT when I was younger, and they do have a large problem with people taking returned items from the garbage, bringing them in saying they have no receipt for the item, getting store credit, buying something with the credit, then returning the item a day later for cash, thus making a profit off of garbage. It's why when I worked there we had to deface and destroy all returns so people couldn't do that. That may be a reason they ask for ID, just to see if people are constantly doing this sort of thing. Not saying you were doing this at all, I think your story is legit, just stating something. Anyways, while they really have no need to get photo ID from you, and I personally would refuse to give it, what's the big deal? People today are way too worried about "invasion of privacy" and BS like that, just give them your ID, return the item, walk out of the store rather than get yourself in a knot, and the people at the store pissed off, which just makes thing much much harder for you.

Yes, we do worry about invasion of privacy and with good reason. Instead of following your line of thinking, let's all do ourselves a favour and not shop at Canadian Tire. I can return whatever I have to at Wal Mart and no one asks me for photo ID even to look at, let alone record the information from!

Well first, it's not really an invasion of privacy, typically places may ask for photo ID, but they can't demand it or not replace your item, so it's not really invasion because they aren't taking your wallet and scanning your ID against your will or without your knowledge. Secondly, ya, that's how you fix problems, you go shop at Wal-Mart the biggest cancer ever. Wal-Mart doesn't give a shit because they'll do an exchange on products they don't even carry in their store at all. Everything Wal-Mart has is Made in China garbage, and they don't ask for any ID or information at all, including a receipt, is because EVERYTHING they sell is defective trash. That's the biggest problem today, everyone keeps saying support local businesses, buy local produce, or drive around with those bumper stickers saying "Out of a job yet? Keep buying foreign", yet you all go buy everything, your groceries, supplies, automotive shit, everything from Wal-Mart, which is foreign! Out of a job yet? Keep buying your cheap useless Made in China shit from Wal-Mart.

That's right. Until Canadian businesses can get their acts together on the customer service front, I'll continue to go elsewhere. Oh, and the last time I checked, Canadian Tire sells its fair share of Made in China goods.
The biggest problem today is not people saying "buy local". The biggest problem is idiots like yourself who take 'er up the arse, all in the name of somehow "being Canadian".

Dude, this original issue was all because the person freaked out because the cashier wanted to see their ID. Sorry that I'm just not a total douchebag who makes a hissy fit because someone wants to see my precious drivers license so I can make a simple return on an item wow. I'd rather just show my ID, make my return, and get on with my day rather than hold my breath and throw a tantrum like a child over some mundane thing. I always support people buying local, there's far too much made in china garbage, and yes CT does have it's fair share of it. If you live in North America chances are half your good are made in china. There was no taking it up the arse in the name of being Canadian here. Only thing here is not being a douchebag for making a big deal over something that shouldn't be at all. What's next, you gonna cry if the cashier wants to see your receipt when you make a return, because that's an invasion of privacy because they might log what you've purchased or some shit, jesus just chill out.

First of all, don't address me as "dude". Are you an unemployed beach bum? I know I'm not.
Also, my name isn't Jesus. If you like Canadian Tire so much then go there and set up a tent and live under their roof. This website is called "canadiantiresucks.net", not "unabashedloversofcanadiantire.net"
Finally, I think if you took away "douchebag" from your limited vocabulary, you would hardly be able to express a thought.
Now I'll await your inevitable response because baiting simpletons such as yourself is a little sport of mine.

since ur all to dumb and cant read the back of ur reciept, it states:
"Your name, residence address and phone number will be required. This information is collected, used and retained to help prevent fraud, and may only be disclosed within Canadian Tire. Valid photo ID may be required to confirm this information"
And if having it in your hand wasnt bad enough, it is also posted at all cashs, on the returns desks, when you walk in the store, and on hanging signs around the front end. lmao

This idiot calls others dumb with such gems as "ur", "to dumb", "ur reciept", "wasnt", and "cashs".

And you, like so many others on here, are just plain angry. Anger just means that you are fearful. So, what are you so afraid of that you have to bash others like this? Seriously!

And just the fact that they select any old name that comes up because they don't care, creates even more of this fraudulant garbage that CT continues to uphold and say "it's policy".

Whatever, buddy. Just go on and be angry in your own little world and take it up the ass like you think everyone else should.
