Our response following the Superior Court of Quebec's decision in the Trois-Rivières pyrrhotite cases Français
MONTREAL, Feb. 4, 2021 /CNW Telbec/ - This morning, the Superior Court of Quebec rendered a judgment in the Trois-Rivières Pyrrhotite cases which dismissed SNC Lavalin inc.'s allegations that Lafarge Canada and its representatives would have been negligent with respect to the aggregate contained in the concrete sold by certain ready-mix companies between 2002 and 2007.
Lafarge Canada's position has always been that its representatives had not committed any actions or omissions that could constitute negligence in this matter. This is reflected in the Court's conclusions.
We are very pleased with the result which we believe to be just. We are presently analyzing the judgment and have no further comments to provide.
