On May 6, 2021, Ms Lyne Charlebois filed a civil suit against Gilbert Rozon. Ms. Charlebois is seeking $700,000 in compensatory damages and $1,000,000 in punitive damages for the sexual assault she suffered in 1982.
This lawsuit follows Patricia Tulasne’s individual lawsuit and comes on the heels of the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision not to hear the Courageuses’ appeal after the Quebec Court of Appeal denied them leave to sue their abuser by way of a class action.
