St. Anne's Survivors in Court Fighting for a More Just Independent Assessment Process

Yesterday felt like a good day in court, with Warrior lawyer Fay Brunning arguing for a St. Anne's Survivor whose Independent Assessment Process hearing and decision were compromised. A decision to deny him compensation was handed down before adjudicators had the opportunity to review key documents that had been held up by Canada's Department of 'Justice'. Should Justice Paul Perell mandate that this Survivor is to be provided the opportunity to have his IAP claim reviewed in its entirety, once IAP adjudicators have had the opportunity to review all newly submitted documentation by the Department of Justice, this could indeed set a precedence whereby ALL St. Anne's IAP cases may be re-reviewed to ensure that the process is - finally - fair and just.
