Thomas Meunier

The self-represented applicant brought an application seeking a mandatory injunction to end the Province of Ontario's use of the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The court initiated a review under Rule 2.1.01 of the Rules of Civil Procedure to determine if the proceeding was frivolous, vexatious, or an abuse of process.

The court found that the applicant failed to state a legally tenable claim, lacked admissible evidence, and did not establish private or public interest standing.

The application was dismissed as an abuse of process.
