CanLII - 2011 ONSC 6784 (CanLII)
The plaintiff, Mahmoud Elfarnawani, has commenced an action against the defendants, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and its internal Ethics Commission (EC), claiming damages for the torts of defamation, breach of a duty of good faith, and abuse of process. The action flows from the decision of the IOC, acting on the recommendation of the EC, to declare the plaintiff personae non grata within the Olympic Movement and to recommend that the members of the Olympic family not grant him any accreditation or have any dealings with him. The IOC posted this decision on its internet website.
