Stuart is a person of trust

I have known Stuart for more than five years. As an advisor to clients in Senior Management positions I need someone I can trust when I refer clients for legal counsel relating to their employment. Stuart is a person of trust. Not just because of his knowledge and skill in the legal arena but also because of the way he treats people – with care and respect – important at all times but especially during the often tough circumstances he is helping them work through.

Stuart Offers the Toronto Star a Candid Take on Wage-Theft Lawsuit

May 29, 2026
A class-action lawsuit against One Community Solutions (OCS) — a private security company formerly contracted by the City of Toronto — has escalated, with OCS filing a crossclaim arguing the city and TTC bear responsibility for the alleged mistreatment of its workers. Employees are suing OCS for systemic wage theft, unpaid overtime, and unsafe working conditions. Stuart offered a candid take on the workers' prospects: "We'd like to think governments won't work with bad actors and would take action once they discover something wrong — but there is a difference between what is legal and what is ethical."

Stuart Rudner Discusses Employment Rights Amid Amazon Delivery Drivers’ Strike in Saskatoon

May 13, 2026
In a recent interview with CTV News Saskatoon, Employment Lawyer Stuart Rudner weighed in on the ongoing strike by delivery drivers contracted by Dragonfly, a company that delivers packages for Amazon. The workers, who are classified as independent contractors, walked off the job to protest unsafe working conditions, unpredictable scheduling, and falling piece-rate pay, with some stating, “They don't need drivers, they want slaves.” Stuart Rudner explained that issues surrounding the misclassification of gig workers as independent contractors have been on the rise in recent years. Because these drivers are not classified as traditional employees, they lack standard employment protections such as minimum wage guarantees, benefits, and the right to unionize easily. This case highlights the growing tension in the gig economy and the urgent need for clarity regarding workers' rights and employer obligations.
