The settlement was approved by both the Ontario and Quebec courts. However, the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has recently caused court closures and the suspension of procedural time periods in Quebec. As a result, the 30 day period to appeal the Quebec settlement approval order has been suspended until further notice.

Claim reviews and payments of eligible claims will not begin until after procedural timelines have passed.

Given the fluidity of the coronavirus pandemic, we are closely monitoring developments. However, subject to government direction, we do not anticipate any additional disruptions regarding this class action at this time.

While our call centre remains fully operational, recent surges in land line and cellular phone services by Canadians is saturating national service providers’ networks and may cause disruption to call centre services, resulting in longer queue times. As an alternative you may wish to contact our office by email.

Please continue to monitor this website for additional updates.
