The defendant municipality requested the dismissal of two actions brought by the self-represented plaintiff challenging a mandatory mask by-law enacted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The court found that the plaintiff's pleadings, which alleged Charter violations based on the right to choose what to wear, were repetitive, rambling, and lacked a viable cause of action.
Applying Rule 2.1.01 of the Rules of Civil Procedure, the court dismissed both actions as frivolous, vexatious, and an abuse of process.
