What is the required undertaking of a fiduciary?
Manitoba, Canada
The following excerpt is from Roque v Peters, 2022 MBQB 34 (CanLII):
The required undertaking by the alleged fiduciary may be express or implied (see Alberta, para. 30). The fiduciary must relinquish self-interest; that is an act which the fiduciary does, not an act which is done to the fiduciary (see Galambos v. Perez 2009 SCC 48, para. 78).
