JW v Canada

Citation: JW v Canada (AG), 2019 SCC 20


Our class action content continues with JW v Canada, a fascinating decision about what happens after a class action settlement has ended. Before Karly takes you through the Majority decision, Zach and Karly chat class actions, settlements, class members, and how a multiplicity of worlds can intersect with some class action litigation.


More class actions for you! Today we bring you Cote J's concurring decision in R v JW where Cote J explores the "gap" in the settlement agreement and how she proposes it is fixed. To hear Zach and Karly's thoughts on the case, head on back to Episode 67!


Some more class action comment coming your way! Today we bring you Brown J's dissenting opinion. While he agrees with Cote J on some of the analysis, Brown J dissents and finds there was no "gap" in the settlement. To hear Zach and Karly's thoughts on the case, head on back to Episode 67!
