On April 1, after more than a year of consultation, research and consideration, Ontario’s Civil Rules Review (CRR) working group released its proposed reforms to the Rules of Civil Procedure – the rulebook that governs litigation in the province. If successfully implemented, they will mark the most significant procedural development in the history of Ontario’s civil justice system.
It is hard to overstate the scope of the proposed changes. CRR has completely re-imagined the process for civil lawsuits in the province in hopes of increasing access to justice for Ontarians and making the courts more efficient and effective at resolving civil disputes in a timely manner.
Among other things, some of the key changes include:
The CRR will be soliciting comments from lawyers, academics, the public and other justice system stakeholders in Ontario until June 16, 2025, regarding the proposed reforms.
While it remains to be seen how these proposed reforms will be received by stakeholders, there can be no doubt the CRR has presented a bold re-imagining of Ontario’s civil justice system.
