The defendant, Klick Inc. dba Klick Health, brought a motion to transfer a wrongful dismissal action from Hamilton (Central South Region) to the Toronto Region.
The plaintiff, Danielle Tasson, opposed the motion.
The court considered the factors under Rule 13.1.02(2)(b) of the Rules of Civil Procedure and the relevant Practice Direction, emphasizing a holistic approach.
The court found that the plaintiff’s choice of venue was reasonable, particularly in light of her childcare needs and residence circumstances, and that the defendant had not established that Toronto was “significantly better.” The motion to transfer was dismissed.
