A Quebec Superior Court justice has authorized a class-action lawsuit almost two years after a train derailment and explosion killed 47 people in Lac-Megantic, Que. But in his 30-page ruling, Justice Martin Bureau has given the plaintiffs permission to go after only two companies - World Fuel Services and Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd. The lawsuit alleges that CPR was negligent and there was a lack of prudence in all circumstances leading up to the tragedy.
