RE-LAW LLP

We are pleased the Court has ordered the unlawful encampment at to be dismantled before 6pm today. It was a privilege and pleasure representing one of the interveners, B’nai Brith Canada.

We are thrilled to announce that we have successfully represented our client, a proud veteran of the Israel Defense Forces, in a defamation lawsuit against the notorious Foodbenders restaurant and its proprietor.

Our client was maliciously called a terrorist and a killer (among other things) for the sole reason that he served in the IDF.

Following over three (3) years of litigation and a full contested trial, the judge on Friday released her detailed decision finding that Foodbenders maliciously defamed Mr. DeLuca. Notwithstanding that certain Instagram posts were up for no more than 24 hours, she ordered the Defendants to pay $75,000 in general and aggravated damages and $10,000 in punitive damages. She also granted a permanent injunction.

We would like to thank Shai for his courage in pursuing this case to its just conclusion, and the Lawfare Project for acting as our co-counsel and strategic partner.

Being a Jew and Israeli who sacrifices years on behalf of the State of Israel and its people by serving in the military is not license to defame.

As the trial judge aptly put it in awarding punitive damages,

“these kinds of statements not only affect people’s reputations, but they also contribute to prejudice, antisemitism and intolerance and have the potential to incite violence.”

RE LAW partner Aaron Rosenberg defended free speech and press freedom against government intrusion yesterday in the Federal Court of Canada.

See some of his arguments in today’s National Post.

“We’re talking about a prominent Canadian author (Levant) who has shaped political discourse in this country,” Rosenberg said.

Rosenberg said the decision against Levant was the result of “shifting logical goalposts.”

RE LAW LLP is proud to have intervened on behalf of a coalition of organizations that opposed the decriminalization of prostitution.

Congratulations to David Elmaleh for acting as counsel to the Parents Against Child Trafficking Coalition. See below for his quote in the Toronto Star:

"Parents Against Child Trafficking Coalition, another intervener, believes the decision is a “step in the right direction” toward reducing the demand for prostitution and “protecting some of the most vulnerable segments of society from exploiters, including and especially girls under 18 who are lured into the s*x trade against their will,” said lawyer David Elmaleh."

“We are dismayed that Ms. Poizner and other Jewish social workers have been expressly excluded from a colleague’s referral list on the basis of her Judaism, which encapsulates her Zionist values…To suggest that our client espouses genocidal views because she believes in the Jewish people’s right to self-determination in its indigenous homeland is in our view plainly discriminatory and antisemitic. We look forward to assisting Ms. Poizner with her case, which we understand is emblematic of a much larger issue, given concerning reports of antisemitism in the social work field.”
