SAAQ refuses to compensate landslide survivor in Riviere-Eternidae.

In an interview on “Salut Bonjour Weekend”, Mr. Katie regrets taking action to seek compensation.

The latter spent 76 days in hospital treating serious injuries and underwent lengthy surgery.

“If all the traffic isn’t going to rehab, I do physio three times a week. A lot of costs are attached when no insurance covers you,” he says, while the man can barely walk.

A citizen of the national capital is also considering returning to Quebec’s administrative tribunal to assert his rights.

“For now, SAAQ has rejected the concept of road accident, which is implemented with Me Bellemare. We must protect our rights, especially when they are legal,” he adds in a confident tone.

Two of his companions were swept away by the currents of the River Éternité.

Contacted by TVA Nouvelles, the SAAQ did not wish to comment on the matter so as not to prejudice the ongoing process.
