What is the annual cost of replacement homemaking for a plaintiff in a personal injury action?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Chevalier v Gray, 2018 BCSC 1833 (CanLII):

I do not have any specific evidence estimating the annual cost of replacement homemaking. Appellant decisions have endorsed the notion that a two-thirds reduction should be made under this head of damage where a plaintiff and their spouse are able to reorganize domestic chores in such a way that there is no pecuniary loss: Westboek v. Brizuela 2014 BCCA 48.
