Quebec (Attorney General) v. 9147-0732 Québec inc.
| Collection | Supreme Court Judgments |
| Date | 2020-11-05 |
The Supreme Court ruled today that corporations cannot claim “cruel and unusual treatment” and do not have a Charter right to this protection. This is a victory for human rights. CCLA was an intervenor in the case, arguing that human rights are first and foremost for human beings; human rights should not be available to corporations as a legal tool for maximizing profit.
