Judge Dismisses Farmers’ Class Action Over End to Canadian Wheat Board Monopoly More Than a Decade Ago

In an interview with CBC News, Lawrence Thacker and Brendan Morrison comment on our success in Dennis v Canada (Attorney General) (No 3), a decision that brings closure to a claim that had been pursued through multiple courts in multiple jurisdictions.

Lenczner Slaght’s Lawrence Thacker, Brendan Morrison, Jim Lepore, Madeleine Andrew-Gee, and Catherine Blair secured summary judgment for G3 Canada Limited, formerly the Canadian Wheat Board, in Dennis v Canada (Attorney General) (No 3). The Manitoba Court of King’s Bench dismissed the class action, resolving the last remaining lawsuit arising from the end of the CWB’s single-desk monopoly.
