RCMP officers moved into Alberta jails as about 1,800 guards joined the strike, challenging wage parity and pensions.

The Consumers' Association of Canada urged a new federal watchdog to publicly expose firms that misuse the GST to gauge prices. It would report to the consumer and corporate affairs minister and rely on embarrassment rather than fines to compel price reductions during the GST transition.
