Is a failure to inform a plaintiff a negligence action?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Frerotte v. Irwin, 1986 CanLII 3182 (SK QB):

Nevertheless, if I correctly understand Reibl v. Hughes, supra, that, in Canada, is exactly where it fits. I expect, then, that the concepts of negligence will be enlarged to include a failure to inform.
