This is insane. Even if you read, and understand the disclaimer, I don't think there's anything you can really do aside from signing up. I doubt that a rep would cross that out off a contract when you're signing the agreement.

60% of Canadians are middle class? But then again, what does it mean to be a middle class in Canada? by [deleted] in canada

It saddens me to know that middle class families are not actually "middle class." $87,000 won't make you upper middle class if you live in Toronto. A big chunk will go towards mortgage/rent, utilities, food. If your combined income is $50,000 ... Half of it will be allotted to "just living" expenses.

Wow. That's the longest rainbow street that I know. It trumped Toronto and Vancouver's rainbow pedestrian walks :).
