As Eastern European I am a little bit satisfied that even reasonable Canadians do stupid things.

Still I hope they will reconsider this law.

Quebec? I don't see it happening. It has been like that for as long as I can remember. They can't even enter McDonald's contests like Monopoly. They have their own separate contests.

This is plain wrong. The McDonald’s Monopoly contest is held in all (participating) Canadian McDonald’s restaurants, including Quebec’s. Source: I live in Quebec.

Yes and it's run separately from the rest of Canada's monopoly. Look at the fine print on the prizes in the Ontario McDonald's monopoly which clearly states that it excludes Quebec. Source: I live in Quebec.
