Judgment for Damages

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice has issued a second ruling (dated Dec. 31, 2021) awarding damages, based on its prior ruling on issues of liability. The total damages award is $107 million, with almost $95,000 in costs. The estates of passengers killed in the accident were awarded a total of $1 million in compensatory damages for loss of care and companionship, $1 million to each of six estates for pain and suffering, and $100 million in punitive damages to be divided among the estates.

Here is the link to the Court's opinion - without any comment on whether the judgment will be collected or otherwise enforced. And also without prediction or forecast about whether or not it will have any benefit for the diplomatic efforts Canada has initiated and supported since the January 8, 2020 shootdown of Ukraine International Airline PS 752.
