Is there any liability for bad faith in a medical malpractice case?
Canada (Federal), Canada
The following excerpt is from Ingredia Sa v. Canada, 2009 FC 389 (CanLII):
Although allegations of bad faith are easy to make and hard to prove, the fact remains that liability may arise with respect to actions taken outside the scope of a statute. (Roncarelli v. Duplessis, 1959 CanLII 50 (SCC), [1959] S.C.R. 121, 16 D.L.R. (2d) 689).
