The following excerpt is from Milkovich v. Insurance Corporation of British Columbia, 2010 BCSC 1567 (CanLII):
Agent’s fees have been allowed on assessments but there must be a demonstrated necessity and propriety for such fees. As other registrars recognize, there are less expensive methods of filing documents, including by mail: McDougall v.
