What the Form Asked For
The claim was intentionally simple. No proof of purchase was required for either the national or Quebec claims.3Quebec Packaged Bread Class Action Settlement. Quebec Packaged Bread Class Action Settlement The form collected basic personal information — name, address, contact details — and asked you to pick a payment method. There were no tiered claim levels, no need to estimate how much bread you bought, and no request for receipts, loyalty card records, or credit card statements. Every approved claimant receives the same flat payment.
The per-person amount is modest relative to the $500 million fund, which is what you’d expect given that essentially every Canadian adult who bought packaged bread over a 20-year period could file.
