YELLOWKNIFE (September 5, 2017) - Today, the Consumer Affairs division of the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs (MACA) is announcing a new guide to consumer protection in the NWT entitled “Hey! That’s Not Fair!” The purpose of the guide is to help clarify and explain general consumer rights and responsibilities, how to pursue a complaint about a product or service, and information about consumer services available to NWT residents by the GNWT.
