If you believe you are part of the class action but you did not receive and cash a first distribution cheque, please contact RicePoint at canadacartage@ricepoint.com or 1-888-713-5220 before 4:00pm EST on October 15, 2025. Any eligible class members who did not receive and cash their first distribution cheques and who have not contacted RicePoint by October 15, 2025 at 4:00 pm will not receive a share of the settlement funds.
After October 15, the team will begin work on a third distribution:
- Eligible class members who did not receive their first distribution cheques but have contacted RicePoint will receive the original amount calculated for the first distribution.
- The remaining funds (primarily the refund of taxes on the uncashed first distribution cheques from the CRA) will be distributed to the class members who received the 1000 highest settlement shares. If you received a total of at least $3,015.59 before taxes in the first and second distribution, then you will receive a third distribution cheque.
We anticipate the third distribution cheques will be mailed out in November.
