Alberta oil heiresses ordered to pay $6.6 million in damages for libelling Calgary lawyer
It could be the largest defamation award ever in Canada and the case has ties to the ‘pseudo-law’ movement
But the case may have as much to do with Sandra Anderson’s bizarre “pseudo-law” beliefs, which assert that the Canadian legal system is invalid and have put her in repeated conflict with Alberta courts.
Another judge described Anderson in 2022 as a “litigation terrorist” and a “greedy, uncooperative, abusive scofflaw” after she claimed she had no obligation to make mortgage payments on her condominium. The judge handed the condo over to her bank. Anderson has also invoked strange “sovereign-citizen” ideas to try to avoid paying fines for smuggling high-priced horses from the U.S., and evade criminal charges that included impaired driving, fraud and transporting fireworks on an airplane.
