As we all continue to adjust to the rapidly changing news around COVID-19, the health and safety of our employees, clients, and those in our broader community remain a priority. We are taking cues from public health officials about prudent steps to protect everyone, and effective March 18^th, 2020 lawyers and staff will be primarily working remotely until further notice. We are implementing our business continuity plan to ensure our people will remain safe while our clients continue to be well served. 

Please see our attached update regarding COVID-19 and what this means for our clients.

At Fogler, Rubinoff LLP the health, safety and wellbeing of our employees, clients, contacts, and colleagues is foremost in our minds as we continue to closely monitor the COVID-19 outbreak.

While we are currently maintaining business as usual operations, we are closely following the guidance of Toronto Public Health and will adjust protocols as the local authorities issue new guidance.

We understand the need for our firm to provide continuous and uninterrupted legal services, and want to take this opportunity to update you on the proactive steps we are taking to be prepared for the evolving situation with COVID-19. 

Should the outbreak result in our office closure, we have contingency plans in place that enable us to provide you with uninterrupted service. Our plan includes enhancements to our remote work capabilities and technology to ensure our accounting systems and data are available and secure. By modifying our operations and working remotely, our lawyers and staff will continue to be responsive to your legal and business needs.

In keeping with public heath guidelines, and to ensure the safety of all our employees, colleagues, clients and visitors in our offices, the firm has limited client meetings and moved to teleconferencing where appropriate. Policies on travel, office sanitation and health and safety have been enhanced and enforced, and we have adopted the following measures:

Clients and visitors should refrain from visiting our offices, if:

• They have traveled to any highly affected area or hot spot including but not limited to China, South Korea, Iran or Italy or have been in close contact with someone who has travelled to those areas at any time in the past 14 days; or
• They have any reason to believe that they might otherwise have been exposed to a confirmed case of COVID-19 in the past 14 days; or
• They are exhibiting any symptoms of infection (e.g. fever, dry cough, shortness of breath or other breathing difficulties).

Our lawyers and staff are working under the same guidelines.

We will continue to keep you informed of any changes we may implement as the situation progresses, with information provided via our website and e-mail updates.

Please do not hesitate to contact your Fogler, Rubinoff lawyer, or myself, if you have any questions, or if we can be of assistance in guiding you through these new challenges.

The sweeping changes to Ontario construction laws are likely to touch almost all corners of the industry, including landlords, contractors and condo owners. According to Ken, what may cause concern is determining which contracts are subject to new rules and which are subject to old rules - "People may very well be caught in believing old rules applying to them, when the new rule’s already in place. I think the wise word to anybody in the most general way is whatever the more strict timeline would be, go with that if you can.”

According to Jack, "while the court had the best intentions to do what is just, it may have inadvertently changed the factors or principles for such motions. As someone who litigates a lot of environmental civil actions, we do want to be assured that cost rules are being applied fairly and equally to all groups, including even meritorious environmental groups.” 

Jack recently authored an update on the Yaiguaje v. Chevron saga, and its importance  to environmental lawyers, particularly given the recent growth of interest by governments in encouraging corporate social responsibility by companies operating extractive industries on foreign soil.

Accroding to Jack, the minister's decision to skip environmental review is illegal because the ministry didn't consult the First Nations and overlooked "widespread public concern" generated by the plan, which the province has refused to share publicly.
