A class-action lawsuit against Lafarge Canada and its cement plant in Exshaw for allegedly creating environmental hazards has been launched by an Alberta resident.
Napoli Shkolnik Canada, a class-action litigator based in Calgary and Hamilton, filed the suit on Dec. 6 at the Calgary Court of King’s Bench on behalf of Sandra Furlonger.
