In this article – “Canadian courts confirm significant limits on privacy class actions” – we review such factors as why a class action should not automatically follow from a data breach or incident; how plaintiffs must show evidence of actual harm to obtain certification; and how the courts have put a stop to privacy class actions that lack evidence of harm. The variety of tools that defendants have to defend against privacy claims are also covered.
This article is authored by Mark Gelowitz, Céline Legendre, Robert Carson and David Rankin, who are all partners with Osler’s Litigation group, and by Emily MacKinnon and Lauren Harper, who are associates with the group.
