On June 11, 2025, our firm filed an application for authorization to institute a class action against the Société de transport de Montréal (STM). This request seeks compensation for our client, as well as for all people who paid for a monthly fare offered by the STM valid for the month of June, September, October and November 2025.
Our client’s story
Our client is a nurse in a hospital located in Montreal. She has to travel daily from her home to her place of work using public transit. However, since June 9, 2025, due to the strike by STM employees, access to the network, both for buses and the metro, has been considerably reduced.
At the time of the purchase of his ticket, there was no information to suggest such a disruption of service. Our client therefore believes that she did not receive the service for which she paid.
It suffered several damages, including great frustration, considerable loss of time and the obligation to find longer or more expensive transport alternatives. It considers that the STM breached its contractual obligations by not providing it with the service provided for when it acquired its transit fare.
The proposed class
All natural persons residing in Quebec who have purchased a “monthly” or “weekly” transit fare from the defendant and who have not been able to avail themselves of the said services due to the strike of June, September, October and November 2025.
