Class action lawsuit being launched against Alberta government

A class action lawsuit is being launched against the Alberta government on behalf of business owners in the province. Those who faced operational restrictions or were forced to close their doors due to public health orders during the COVID-19 pandemic. The lawsuit follows the recent Ingram decision by the courts which declared that all of Dr. Deena Hinshaw’s Public Health Orders were deemed illegal. The lawsuit is being spearheaded by Foothills, Alberta lawyer Jeffrey Rath.  He shared the details with BCN’s Hal Roberts.
