A class action was filed against the Canadian provincial government regarding its treatment of severely handicapped, widowed, and poor Albertans. The lawsuit claimed illegal and abusive bureaucratic treatment of people on the government's social programs. Policies arbitrarily docked these people for overpayments caused by administrative errors and denied them full compensation when they were underpaid. The Alberta Court of Queen's Bench has approved a $100 million class action settlement. (Jan-14-06)
