British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Osborne v. Pavlick et al., 2000 BCCA 120 (CanLII):

As I understand the judgment of Cartwright J. in Cook v. Lewis, 1951 CanLII 26 (SCC), [1951] S.C.R. 830, he accepted that passage as sound law although he did not find that it solved the intellectual problem posed by Cook v. Lewis.
