The Quebec Court of Appeal has refused to hear a motion to dismiss a C$900-million class action lawsuit by two Innu First Nation communities against a subsidiary of Rio Tinto. The Innu communities of Uashat Mak Mani-Utenam and Matimekush-Lac John asked the court last March for an injunction against Rio's Iron Ore Company of Canada (IOC) unit in Quebec and Labrador to stop all mining, as well as an estimated C$900-million in damages.
