Possible Litigation

Radio Amateurs of Canada has been advised of the intention of the Norman Estate to seek a judicial determination of the late Debbie Norman's Employment Contract with RAC as General Manager, and whether the contractual language supports a termination payment.

Tragically, Debbie became a Silent Key on November 27, 2006, shortly after giving notice to RAC of her intention to retire at the end of 2006.

RAC has retained legal counsel in relation to this matter. Unlike an action in the Courts, the matter is expected to proceed by way of what is known as an "Application" to determine rights in a contract pursuant to Ontario's Rules of Civil Procedure.

The hearing in this matter is presently scheduled for early, 2008 in Ottawa.
