The Ontario government is facing a class-action lawsuit over the cancellation of the province’s basic income pilot project.

On March 4, the Ontario Superior Court released its decision certifying the class action, which alleges that the cancellation of the pilot amounts to a breach of contract, according to Toronto law firm Cavalluzzo LLP.

The lawsuit is seeking damages of up to $200 million for the 4,000 program participants in Hamilton, Lindsay and Thunder Bay who agreed to receive a monthly basic income in exchange for regularly completing surveys and “opening their lives up to the researchers.”
