Summary

Mr. Eloumou brought an action in civil liability against the Attorney General of Quebec. He alleged that the representatives of Quebec’s Ministère de l’Immigration, de la Diversité et de l’Inclusion had misled him by representing to him that his professional training as an engineer would be recognized if he decided to immigrate to Quebec and by undervaluing his academic degrees.

The trial judge dismissed his action claiming damages, moral damages and punitive damages. The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding that it had no chance of success.
