Stop companies and individuals from purchasing tickets for the sole purpose of reselling.
The Issue
Have you tried to purchase concert or sporting tickets online that you really wanted, but weren't able to get any? You were right there online the moment they went on sale, but within minutes they sold out. The next thing you knew, those same tickets you lost out on were back up for sale on some other webpage or classified site: for double or triple the price. K106.3, 99.9 The Fox and CHOK feel that true fans are the ones who should be able to go to the shows, and don't think fans should ever have to pay more than face value for those tickets.
This petition is an attempt to stop companies and individuals from purchasing tickets for the sole purpose of reselling to make a profit.
To help increase the number of names and awareness, the radio stations are asking you to help spread the word. Please share this with your friends, family and coworkers. Social media will be a big part of name collecting. Please include the hashtag #ticketgougingcanada.
If we all band together, we can put an end to ticket price gouging so the true fans can enjoy an event for what it’s worth and companies and individuals can be forced to stop profiting from SOLD OUT events.
