Canada v. Hudson

The motion judge did not err in refusing to grant permanent stays under s.50(1)(b) FCA because, on the record, Hudson and Pierrot sufficiently focus on systemic racism and implicit misconduct whereas Greenwood and AMPMQ focus on bullying/intimidation/abuse of power, so the proceedings are not duplicative to a degree warranting a permanent stay; the motion judge properly considered class-action goals, balanced prejudice, applied the correct standard, and left finer overlap issues to certification or case management.

Laliberte v. Day

The motion judge did not commit a reviewable error: he permissibly applied a multi-factor carriage analysis, reasonably concluded that Day's asserted harms and opposing counsel's Daniels experience better served the combined Métis/Non-Status Indian class, legitimately treated post-scheduling amendments with caution, and reached a discretionary decision the Court of Appeal would not overturn absent palpable and overriding error; accordingly the appeal is dismissed and the Federal Court carriage order in favour of the Day action is upheld.
