A pro-life group has been given the go-ahead by the Ontario Court of Appeal to launch a civil lawsuit alleging an online activist posted videos containing staff contact information and encouraging her viewers to disrupt the group’s activities.

Activist Brooke Dietrich was sued by the group 40 Days for Life for defamation, internet harassment, fraud, breach of contract, inducing breach of contract, and civil conspiracy in relation to several TikTok videos she allegedly posted in 2021.
