The Regional Municipality of York brought a motion to compel the Claimants to answer questions refused and produce documents requested during an examination for discovery in an expropriation compensation proceeding.
The requested documents included corporate tax returns, financial statements, and occupancy records.
The Tribunal found the requested information relevant to the damages claims and ordered the Claimants to provide the answers and documentation, noting that confidentiality is not a proper basis to refuse production of relevant documents.
