A widower whose wife was killed in April's mass shooting in Nova Scotia is the plaintiff named in a proposed class-action lawsuit against the gunman's estate.
The legal application was filed with the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia in Truro on Tuesday. It alleges the estate of denturist Gabriel Wortman is liable to the families of the victims who lost their lives or were injured due to his actions. A judge must approve the lawsuit before it can proceed to trial.
He shot victims in houses and cars, and burned homes to the ground in several communities. Twenty-two people died in what is one of Canada's worst mass shootings.

Lethbridge police are being investigated by an outside force after handcuffing a woman in a stormtrooper costume outside a Star Wars-themed business earlier this week.
But still the Lethbridge Police Service faces accusations that not enough is being done to investigate what happened.
On May 4, the Lethbridge police officers responded to two 911 calls reporting a person in a Star Wars stormtrooper costume was carrying a firearm on 13th Street North in the southern Alberta city.
Inside the costume was an employee of a nearby space-themed restaurant, the Coco Vanilla Galactic Cantina.

The 19-year-old was carrying a plastic toy gun for her assignment of waving at people and encouraging them to visit the establishment for themed specials, like Yoda Soda.
The business was holding a May the fourth promotion, a reference to the Star Wars day that's a pun on the movie franchise's expression "May the force be with you."
On Friday, Lethbridge police announced they were handing over an internal service investigation to be handled by the nearby Medicine Hat Police Service.
"LPS is committed to ensuring transparency in this matter and once the independent investigation has been completed and reviewed, a public update will be provided."
Plastic gun, boss present
The takedown gained notoriety this week after a witness caught the interaction — including the woman sobbing — on a video that went viral and prompted outrage from fans of the movie franchise.
William Shatner, famed as Captain Kirk on Star Trek, weighed in to call for an investigation.
"Rifles drawn for a plastic toy Cosplayer? Didn't comply right away? Are you blind Chief? Watch the video to see how quickly she complied," the actor said on Twitter. "This cannot be covered up."

Statistics Canada reported at 8:30 a.m. ET Friday that the economy lost almost two million jobs, but that number was leaked early. The federal agency is now investigating the leak. (Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press)
Statistics Canada has launched an investigation after a media outlet reported its latest job-loss figures more than a half hour before the data was officially released.
A headline published by Bloomberg correctly reported that job losses would be about two million — roughly half the market's expectation — citing a person familiar with the data.
