Almost every Canadian has a spray can of WD-40 in the garage, but that's about to change.

You use it to fix just about anything that needs a little lubrication, squeaky hinges, rusty bolts and even your bike chain.

Update: Thanks to @Sbhinclusion for sharing this press release from WD-40, which states that they will become compliant with th new regulation.

The cynic in me wonders if this was staged by WD. It pretty well ensures that everyone will be flocking to buy what's left on the shelves before it changes it to a non aerosol in 2024. Up until this point I hadn't even heard of this but now I myself am tempted to grab a can or two

Nah, it's just Derek Fildebrandt rage-farming again. If he could get away with it, he'd write a follow-up blaming Trudeau.
