The applicant and her husband were equal shareholders in a concrete forming business.
Following a marital breakdown, the husband incorporated a new company, transferred the original company's assets, employees, and business opportunities to it, and excluded the applicant from any role or ownership.
The applicant brought an application for an oppression remedy.
The court found the husband's conduct was oppressive, unfairly disregarded the applicant's interests, and breached his fiduciary duties.
The court ordered a buy-out of the applicant's 50 percent interest in the original company at fair market value, to be determined by a valuator, and awarded her compensation for 14 months of lost income.
