Motion for certification of class action against RCMP regarding missing Indigenous women dismissed.
A motion for certification of a class action on behalf of families of missing and murdered Indigenous women alleging systemic negligence by the RCMP.
The Federal Court dismissed the motion, finding it plain and obvious that the pleadings disclosed no reasonable cause of action for systemic negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, negligent police investigation, misfeasance in public office, or Charter breaches, as the RCMP owes no private law duty of care to the proposed class.
