1987
Appeal over the term smoked meat
Dunn's and other delicatessens opposed replacing the familiar English expression "Smoked Meat" with "Boeuf Mariné." Their appeal succeeded, and the term was accepted for use in both official languages of Canada.
1977

The Office québécois de la langue française challenged Dunn's over the apostrophe in its sign, English-language signage and labelling connected with Quebec's language requirements. The dispute was viewed by some members of Montreal's Jewish community as unfair targeting.
