Is 1520334's liability only based on vicarious liability?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Pepper v. Zellers Inc. (Zellers Pharmacy), 2006 CanLII 42355 (ON CA):
On this point, the motion judge agreed that 1520334's liability could only be based on vicarious liability. Referring to Goff v. Barker, the motion judge said, at para. 105: Under Callon J.'s holding, if the pharmacist is not liable for dispensing the drug because of the intervening limitation period, the company operating the pharmacy must also be necessarily immunized because its liability could only be based on the doctrine of vicarious liability.
