Ontario Right-to-Repair: Ontario has no right-to-repair law yet, only a bill. Introduced by NDP MPPs in the 44th Parliament (first reading December 10, 2025; awaiting second reading as of August 2026). Covers automotive, agricultural, consumer electronics, and appliance repair with requirements for manufacturers to provide repair manuals, parts, software, and tools, plus a parts-pairing ban. Builds on earlier Ontario bills (Bill 72 in 2019, Bill 187 in 2024) that did not pass. As a private member's bill under a majority government, it's unlikely to advance without government support.
