British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Waters (Guardian of) v. Baird, 1997 CanLII 2119 (BC SC):

His inability to work from the present to the age of 62 is entirely due to the accident, so the 20% reduction based on Athey v. Leonati (supra) does not apply to this head of damages. 4. Future Care
