Quick note
If you tell me which province you’re in (e.g., Ontario vs. Quebec vs. British Columbia) and whether you’re asking about iPhone batteries/performance or a different Apple product (like iPods), I can narrow to the most relevant Canada case and summarize the latest procedural status for that specific matter.
