Sounds it stupid, when I suggest to solder a drop of tin instead ? Or to the respective battery contact ?

I am sorry but I don't understand this. Can you please elaborate on possible solution?

I mean, if there is still the rest of the broken spring, to make it bigger with a liquid metal to regain the electrical contact.

But I'd rather send it to Canon.
