The Ontario Court of Appeal last month partly overturned a lower court ruling in October 2012 in favor of the government’s motion to dismiss the initial C$2.25bn lawsuit.
Trillium's basis for seeking damages was two-fold:
First, it asserted that Ontario unlawfully deprived it of a lucrative off-shore wind-powered electric generation project for an improper political purpose, specifically an electoral purpose.
In a second complaint, it alleged that Ontario’s decision specifically targeted Trillium with a view to crippling it financially so that it would not be able to contest the government’s actions.
