ST ALBERT, Alberta (LifeSiteNews) — The attorney representing hundreds of current and former Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) members in a $500 million class action lawsuit against military leaders over the imposition of “unlawful” COVID jab mandates is calling for the court to summarily rule in their favor following the Crown urging the court to dismiss the case.
In June more than 300 individuals who have served in the CAF filed a claim in Canada’s Federal Court arguing that Canada’s Chief of the Defence Staff (CDS) General Wayne Eyre “issued an unlawful order on October 25, 2021, in violation of established law and constitutional rights” by requiring members of the armed forces to get the experimental COVID-19 shot or face removal from the service.
Earlier this month the Crown filed a statement of defense with the court arguing that the lawsuit should be dismissed “with costs against the plaintiffs,” and describing the lawsuit as “scandalous, frivolous and vexatious.”
The lawsuit is seeking monetary damages of roughly $1,000,000 per plaintiff and well over $1,000,000 more in other damages, coming to around $500,000,000 total.
