Lawyer Anlac Nguyen filed the motion in Quebec Superior Court on behalf of seven Canadians and two natives of the Czech Republic. "They do not have tuberculosis, but nobody can say that they won't have tuberculosis either," Nguyen said of his clients. He believes more passengers may bring action against Speaker.
