Settlement - Canadian Armed Forces Racism Class Action Compensation & Representation For Victims
THIS IS A SOLICITATION FOR LEGAL REPRESENTATION
WE ARE NOT CLASS COUNSEL IN THIS CASE
Have you experienced racial discrimination or racial harassment in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF)? If yes, a class action settlement may affect you.
While not admitting liability, the Government of Canada has agreed to settlement of a class action for current and former members of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) who experienced racial discrimination and/or racial harassment in connection with their military service at any time since April 17, 1985.
The CAF includes all current and former Regular and Reserve Force members of the CAF, including the Primary Reserve, Cadet Organizations Administration and Training Service (COATS), Canadian Rangers and Supplementary Reserve.
In order to make a claim for a monetary award, and/or to request a personalized letter of apology from the Chief of the Defence Staff, and/or to participate in restorative engagement processes, you will need to submit an Individual Claim Form to the Claims Administrator.
If you would like assistance with completing an Individual Claim Form, Class Counsel can provide this assistance at no charge. If you want us to represent you, this will be at your own expense.
Your payment will depend on the duration and severity of your experience of racial discrimination and/or racial harassment in connection with your military service. It may also depend on how many Class Members submit claims. The potential range of individual payment for Class Members is from $5,000 to $35,000. The total amount of individual payments to all Class Members cannot exceed $150 million. The individual payments to Class Members, as assessed by the Independent Assessors, may need to be reduced on a pro rata basis so that the total amount of payments to Class Members does not exceed $150 million.
