We don't have legislation like this in Canada as of yet, but really, besides putting more money in to the pockets of OEM's people should have the right to repair. Not only does this limit the amount of refuse in landfills, but it's about time that we, the people, the consumers who vote ever god-damned day with the almighty dollar, ensure corporate responsibility. Not not manufacture junk. To take back hazardous waist that is contained in their products, and just maybe, they will reform their supply lines rather than cry the fact that it 'costs too much.' Paying $750 for a motherboard replacement on a laptop that costs $1200 for a $0.17 part that went the way of the dodo bird is what costs too much!
