Negligence - Duty of Care Williams v. Richard (Ont CA, 2018) ===== TORTS ------------------ Tort / negligent misrep leading case - [81] The motions judge was satisfied the plaintiffs had established four out of the five elements required to prove a claim of negligent misrepresentation, as set out in Queen v. Cognos, 1993 CanLII 146 (SCC), [1993] 1 S.C.R. 87: (1) the defendants owed them a duty of care; (2) the defendants made an untrue, inaccurate or misleading representation; (3) the defendants did so negligently; and (4) the plaintiffs suffered damage as a result. It was in this context that the motions judge described the Estimates as “deceptive documents” that were “replete with misrepresentations of commission, of omission, and of half-truth”. He explained, at para. 215: “Mr. Levitan had no training, experience, or justification from actual research to make any projections about the revenue streams for the new hotel in Toronto. What actually happened shows how inaccurate Mr. Levitan’s guesswork was.” [82] Despite these strong words, the motions judge held that the plaintiffs failed to establish the fifth required element: that they reasonably relied on the misrepresentation. ------------------ Tort / occupier's liability duty of care plus from the SCC Waldick v. Malcolm, [1991] 2 SCR 456, 1991 CanLII 71 (SCC) ------------------ Torts / "joint venture tort liability" - search this phrase for joint liability where defendants engaged in a "common purpose" ------------------ Torts / leading case on the elements of negligence Mustapha v. Culligan of Canada Ltd., 2008 SCC 27 (CanLII), [2008] 2 S.C.R. 114, at para. 3. ------------------------------- Torts *** this case may use the Criminal Code as a tort standard: Ryan Wright v. United Parcel Service Canada Ltd., 2012 ONSC 3287 (CanLII) [Div Ct] ------------------------------- Torts / CICB / Trusts - survival of personal injury damage claims to estate: Nussbacher v. Criminal Injuries Compensation Board, 2006 CanLII 37416 (ON SCDC): [3] The Compensation for Victims of Crime Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. C.24, does not alter the common law principle that a right to compensation for injuries suffered by a person terminates with the death of the person. While s.38(1) of the Trustee Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. T.23, modified the common law principle that a personal action dies with the person, that section does not apply in the circumstances of this case. “Action” in s.38(1) refers to civil proceedings between a plaintiff and defendant (see Royal Canadian Legion Norwood (Alberta) Branch 178 v. Edmonton (City) (1994), 1994 ABCA 37 (CanLII), 16 Alta. L.R. (3d) 305 (C.A.) at paragraph 27). Section 38(1) does not refer to proceedings before an administrative tribunal to obtain compensation from a public fund. ------------------------------------- TORTS 23. Outaouais Synergest Inc. v.

Kairys, 2009 CanLII 29485 (Ont Div Ct, 2009) - adjoining landowners owe each other a duty of 'lateral support' with respect to each other's land, which is sometimes characterized as an easement; the result is that any actions by one which negatively effect the lateral support of the land of the other give rise to liability, whether it be characterized as nuisance, trespass or negligence 62.
