Mass Tort Leads in Ontario

Ontario is Canada's largest mass tort jurisdiction, with the Superior Court of Justice hearing more class action proceedings than any other province. The Class Proceedings Act, 1992 governs class actions in Ontario and provides a well-established framework for certifying and litigating mass tort claims. Major plaintiff firms concentrated in Toronto drive much of Canada's class action activity, and Ontario courts have been receptive to certifying claims involving pharmaceuticals, medical devices, environmental contamination, and consumer products.

Active mass tort campaigns in Ontario span a wide range of exposure categories. Pharmaceutical litigation involving recalled drugs, defective medical devices such as hernia mesh and hip implants, and environmental contamination claims related to industrial sites in Hamilton, Sarnia, and other manufacturing centres all produce qualified claimants. Toronto's dense population of over 6.9 million in the GTA means that product exposure rates are high for consumer-facing torts, while industrial communities across southern Ontario contribute environmental and occupational exposure claims.

DashLeads generates pre-screened mass tort leads from Ontario residents who meet eligibility criteria for active class action campaigns. Our screening funnels verify exposure details, health impacts, and diagnosis information before delivering leads to plaintiff firms. The province's limitation periods vary by claim type — the Limitations Act, 2002 provides a general two-year discovery period, but class action suspension rules may extend this for class members. All lead generation complies with the Law Society of Ontario's rules on advertising and client solicitation.
