Dan Arcand and TD Canada Trust Respondents/Defendants

Counsel

Songja Hasselsjo, in person

James Riewald, for the respondents

Heard and released orally: September 13, 2019

On appeal from: the order of Justice Andrew J. Goodman of the Superior Court of Justice, dated April 16, 2019.

Reasons for Decision

[1] The appellant has failed to show any error in the motion judge's conclusion that TD Canada Trust was entitled to terminate its banking relationship with the appellant. The appellant has also failed to point to any evidence that would sustain her other claims including for defamation and unjust enrichment.

[2] Summary judgment was properly granted dismissing the appellant's claims.

[3] The appellant also sought leave to appeal the motion judge's award of costs. We do not see any basis upon which we would properly grant leave.

[4] The motion for leave to appeal is dismissed as is the appeal itself. Costs are awarded to the respondent in the all-inclusive amount of $1,500.
