What happens when a 24-year-old student takes on a powerful developer—and wins?
Gavin Tighe and Stephen Thiele dig into Sheridan Retail Inc. v. Roy, a landmark Ontario case that captures the very essence of anti-SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation) legislation.
They unpack the David-and-Goliath dynamics between a large developer and a university student who dared to speak up about potential code violations in a redevelopment project.
Gavin and Stephen explore the wider implications of public discourse, the abuse of legal systems to silence opposition, and how the courts are pushing back in defense of free expression.
