Settlement Approved in the Quebec Audi Privacy Class Action Français
The lawsuit alleged that Audi is liable for a data incident which may have compromised the personal information belonging to its clients and/or potential clients (the " Data Incident"). Audi denies any wrongdoing, and none of the allegations of the lawsuit have been proven.
The Class Members are the Quebec residents whose personal Information held by Audi was compromised in a data breach which occurred on or before March 10, 2021, or who received an email or letter from Audi dated on or about June 11, 2021, informing them of such data breach.
Audi has agreed to provide a fund of CAD $240,000 to settle the lawsuit. Class members who have suffered damages, losses, costs and/or unreimbursed expenses caused by the Data Incident would be eligible for the reimbursement of such damages up to a maximum of CAD $5,000. Class members who do not have documentation or proof of out-of-pocket damages and who submit a claim would be entitled to up to a maximum of CAD $200 to indemnify them for lost time or other damages suffered. If the total amount of valid claims by Settlement Class Members exceeds the total amount allocated for either the Documented Claims or the Undocumented Claims, the individual payments to Settlement Class Members may be reduced on a pro rata basis (proportionally).
The period for submitting a claim begins on July 28, 2025, and runs until October 27, 2025, at 11:59 PM EST.

CFIB statement on Canada Post workers rejecting final offer
TORONTO, Aug. 1, 2025 /CNW/ - It's extremely disappointing that the members of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) have rejected Canada Post's final offer. This just brings more uncertainty at a time when small businesses are already struggling to plan ahead. We can't keep doing this. If there's another strike, two in three businesses may walk away from Canada Post permanently. We're calling on government to prevent another strike from happening by extending the current collective bargaining agreement for the foreseeable future. Government also needs to immediately give Canada Post the full authority to make the major reforms needed to ensure it is financially sustainable. This will likely require tough decisions, including back-to-work legislation orders. CFIB is calling on all political parties to support the reforms suggested in the Industrial Inquiry report to allow this important service to continue for the long term. - Dan Kelly, President, CFIB About CFIB The Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) is Canada's largest association of small and medium-sized businesses with 100,000 members across every industry and region.
