British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Cobble Hill Holdings Ltd. v British Columbia, 2019 BCSC 151 (CanLII):

During the hearing before me, Cobble Hill Holdings argued that there is an analogous duty of care that has already been established in the case law, and relied for this in its notice of civil claim and in argument on James v. British Columbia, 2005 BCCA 136, as an example of a governmental authority found to have a duty of care.
