THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT
Note that Class Members may receive more or less than $50, depending on the number of claims filed, and the legal fees and disbursements which have been approved by the Court.
The Class Action was brought against LifeLabs Inc. and related LifeLabs companies following an attack by a criminal cyber-attacker on its database of customer personal health information. The Action alleged that LifeLabs was negligent in its protection of that data. LifeLabs denied all such allegations.
The Class includes approximately 8.6 million persons whose personal information (including provincial health card numbers) was stolen, including approximately 131,957 Class members whose confidential test requisitions or test results were stolen by hackers.
LifeLabs paid a ransom and the cyber-attackers returned the data. That data has not been identified as being sold on the dark web or otherwise misused by anyone.

Payments will only occur after the end of the claim period. Once you submit your claim form with all fields completed and signed, no further action is required until it is time for the payments to be made, which will be subsequent to April 6, 2024.
Available to Canadians. The Claim Period ends on April 6, 2024.
