Rogers Communications Canada Inc. v. Québecor Média Inc.

The Court dismissed the appeal: the CRTC did not breach procedural fairness in making adjustments, refusing expanded disclosure, or refusing production given its discretion, the applicable confidentiality/disclosure regime and concerns about delay; and there was no legal error in the CRTC's application of the requirement that rates be just and reasonable, particularly given the governing long-term fair return principle; factual findings are not reviewable on this appeal.

Human rights law 2025 CHRT 12

Zawilski v. Cogeco Connexion Inc.

The Tribunal granted the confidentiality order under s.52(1)(c) CHRA applying the Sherman (Estate) three‑part test: it found the documents were contractually protected and treated as confidential, disclosure would pose a real and substantial risk to important public interests (protection of confidential contractual information and competitive market integrity), no reasonable alternatives would prevent that risk, and the benefits of sealing outweigh the harm to open court values. Therefore the specified documents are sealed and subject to confidentiality conditions.

  • Confidentiality order
  • Open court principle
  • Section 52 chra
  • Duty to accommodate
  • Described video accessibility
  • Non‑disclosure agreements

  • Accessibility
  • Interested person status

Telecommunications law 2024 FCA 121

Teksavvy Solutions Inc. v. Bell Canada

The appeal is dismissed because the matters complained of are discretionary, policy-laden rate-setting decisions outside the Court's remit under s.64(1); the CRTC lawfully adopted and relied on an articulable costing methodology and prior record, Teksavvy had no enforceable legitimate expectation to force repetition of the exhaustive costing process, alleged bias was not established and objections were waived by failure to raise them promptly.

  • Rate-setting
  • Legitimate expectations
  • Bias and reasonable apprehension of bias
  • Procedural fairness
  • Statutory scope of appeal (s.64(1))
  • Crtc variation power (s.62)

Administrative law 2024 CAF 99

Rogers Communications Canada Inc. c. Québécor Média Inc.

Given the prior December 15, 2023 disclosure order in favour of Rogers, fairness requires granting Québécor access to the same category of confidential information (affirmations, analysis and, if applicable, business plan supporting Rogers' final offer) on an 'external counsel and experts only' basis; the confidentiality order is modified to add a third tier but access by an internal designated representative is denied; QMI must file its response within 20 days of transmission with extensions only by court order on a demonstrated diligence standard.

  • Disclosure under court rules
  • Confidentiality orders and tiers
  • Access to third‑party tribunal records
  • Timetable for filings
  • Use of experts
