The court refused to allow the plaintiffs to post security for costs via a third-ranking mortgage.
The court considered whether the plaintiffs could post security for costs by way of a third-ranking charge against real property, rather than in cash or by letter of credit.
The court found that the plaintiffs had not provided sufficient sworn evidence regarding the value and equity of the property, nor had they demonstrated that the proposed security would be a reliable and accessible source of funds for the defendants.
The court declined to approve the third-ranking mortgage as security and ordered that security be posted in an acceptable form, such as cash or a letter of credit, extending the deadline for posting security by one week.

The court dismissed the claim against the union but granted the plaintiff liberty to take steps to amend the statement of claim.
In-person parenting time ordered to resume; COVID-19 pandemic alone does not justify unilateral suspension of access.
The applicant father brought an urgent motion to resume his in-person parenting time, which the respondent mother had unilaterally suspended due to concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic and their child's asthma.
The court found the motion urgent and held that the pandemic alone is not a reason to suspend access where appropriate precautions are taken.
Finding no evidence that the children's safety would be compromised, the court ordered the immediate resumption of the applicant's in-person parenting time in accordance with existing orders.
