The moving parties sought to recognize and enforce an interlocutory Mareva injunction issued by the Quebec Superior Court against the responding parties in Ontario, and to appoint an interlocutory receiver over two Ontario hydroelectric companies owned by the individual respondent.
The court held that interprovincial interlocutory Mareva injunctions can be recognized and enforced, relaxing the traditional finality requirement for foreign non-monetary orders.
The court recognized and enforced the Quebec Mareva Order, subject to an allowance for ordinary business expenses, but declined to appoint a receiver as it was disproportionate and unnecessary.
