Is there any evidence relating to an alleged verbal agreement?

Nova Scotia, Canada


The following excerpt is from A.F. MacPhee Holdings Limited v. Sears, 2020 NSSC 373 (CanLII):

MacPhee Holdings relies on Hawrish v. Bank of Montreal, 1969 CanLII 2 (SCC), [1969] S.C.R. 515, arguing that any evidence relating to the alleged verbal agreement is not evidence raising a material fact in issue as it is not proper evidence to be heard and admitted at this motion in relation to a written agreement. I disagree.
