It's like starting a class action after spending $50,000 on a car with a 4 year warranty and then saying "well, the warranty expired 4 years after I bought the car" and wanting damages because some tort was committed.
In most (all?) jurisdictions in Canada, it's illegal to sell a gift card with an expiry date.

It doesn't matter what you put in the terms if it's not legal.
