MONTREAL — A Quebec judge has ordered a Montreal millionaire to pay his former business partner nearly $1 million for falsely accusing him of profiting off gold stolen by Nazis from Jews in concentration camps.
Real estate developer and lawyer Glenn Feldman began making the claims after a falling out in 2019 with his longtime friend Irwin Lande, who had refused to lend him money.

For years, Feldman accused Lande and his wife Claude-Andrée Pion of hiding Nazi-stolen gold bars worth millions of dollars in their home.
In June, a Superior Court judge ruled that Feldman’s claims against Lande and Pion were false, defamatory and made in bad faith.
Feldman has since been ordered to pay the couple $985,000 in moral and punitive damages, plus legal costs.
Judge Thomas Davis also granted a permanent injunction against Feldman so that he would stop spreading the false allegations.
