Not to be argumentative, but you didn't provide a specific URL so I just did a Google search, got myself to an area of the Quebec government web site that at least had a link to the Clic Revenue area, and was able to proceed to a few more pages beyond that. I have to admit, though, that I was not able to find any information on what the System Requirements are to utilize this service that these web pages are describing.

What I was trying to determine is whether you mean that there is documentation that says that Mac users are not supported or whether you mean that there is an actual web page somewhere which refuses to load or work because it detects that you are using a Mac. I guess I thought that, once I got to that stage, I could see if I could find a workaround.

For example, I have run into lots of situations where a notice may be posted to the effect that Mac browsers are not supported, but all it really means is, "We have no one here who can answer your Mac related issues, if you have any.", and in actual fact the site works just fine from a Mac.

There are also some Mac browsers which can be configured to announce themselves as being some other browser, including ones that are only available on a PC. Sometimes that works.

Anyway, I tried but really didn't get too far. If you like, let us know exactly where the problem arises. Of course, if it's simply more fun to sue than to figure out a workaround, I can understand that, too!

I have just found out that one of the web-based services provided by Revenu Quebec, namely their Clic revenu service, is no longer accessible to mac users, or to anyone who doesn't use windows! This doesn't speak very well for the abilities of their software people, if they are unable to provide for all the unix, linux, mac or other OS users out there.

I wonder whether a class action lawsuit has a chance here. Thoughts, anyone?
