British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Bozzo v. Kuprowsky, 2021 BCCRT 248 (CanLII):

36. I find that whether the electrical work was deficient or below industry standards is technical and beyond ordinary knowledge. In such cases, expert evidence is generally required to determine the appropriate standard of professional competence: see Bergen v. Guliker, 2015 BCCA 283.
