Survivors of 4-year-old Brody Meekis alleged the coroner’s investigation was inadequate.
THUNDER BAY — A judge has tossed out a case launched against the province and the Ontario Coroner’s office by the family of a four-year-old Indigenous child who alleged that the investigation into his death was inadequate and discriminatory.
Superior Court Justice J.S. Fregeau concluded that the various elements of the claim had no reasonable prospect of success in a trial, so he struck them.
“The underlying legal foundations of the claims proceed on an erroneous interpretation of the Coroners’ statutory obligations under the [Coroners] Act,” he said in his ruling.
Brody Meekis died from strep throat in his home community of Sandy Lake First Nation in 2014.
