Latest News About Gilbert Rozon

Here are the latest developments I can summarize based on recent coverage up to now:

• A settlement has been reached in the civil case involving Gilbert Rozon, the founder of Just for Laughs. Reports indicate Rozon agreed to pay amounts totaling around $930,000 to nine claimants, and to waive his right to appeal. This follows a Quebec court ruling that found Rozon liable for sexual assaults against eight women and ordered damages previously totaling about $880,000, with the settlement including an additional contribution to a related group [sources indicate dates in May 2026 and March 2026 for related judgments and settlements]. If you’d like, I can pull direct links to the specific articles for precise citations.

• The civil trial had previously drawn substantial attention in Canada, with nine women pursuing damages close to $14 million in total and cross-examinations and testimonies taking place through 2024–2025. Coverage at the time described Rozon and his legal team framing the proceedings within broader MeToo-era discourse and noting ongoing legal developments in Quebec’s justice system [sources from late 2024 to mid-2025 provide context on the trial timeline]. I can provide exact article references if you want.
