MONTREAL — Joey Zukran of LPC Avocats announced that a $6,500,000.00 settlement has been reached with Danone Inc., Wal-Mart Canada Corp., and Intact Insurance Company (collectively, the ‘Settling Defendants’) to settle a nationwide class action lawsuit related to the Recall of Silk Canada Products and Great Value Products initiated on July 8, 2024.

The Class is comprised of all persons in Canada who purchased or ingested the Silk Canada Products or Great Value Products subject to the Recall initiated by Danone Canada on July 8, 2024, including those who have suffered any injury as a result thereof, and their successors, assigns, family members, and dependants.

The settlement funds of $6,500,000.00, less court-approved expenses, will reportedly be distributed to Class members who meet certain criteria based on the category of sicknesses they belong to described in a ‘Compensation Grid’ available at: www.PlantBeverages-Settlement.com.

Additionally, under the Settlement Agreement, Class members are reportedly entitled to benefit from the Voluntary Refund Program implemented by Danone Canada for Silk Canada Products and Great Value Products, which Danone Canada has undertaken to maintain in place until the last day of the Claim Period defined in the Settlement Agreement.

“This national settlement not only provides for fair and significant monetary compensation to those harmed, but ensures relief in a timely and efficient manner,” said Joey Zukran, Founder, LPC Avocats.

Danone Canada is reportedly cooperating with all parties and remains actively engaged in the legal proceedings to achieve a timely and appropriate resolution for its consumers.

The settlement approval hearing will take place in the Montreal Courthouse on January 26, 2026 at 9:30 a.m.
