What authorities have been found to be negligent misrepresentation in the context of a claim for damages from a plaintiff?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from McKenna v. Gammon Gold Inc., 2010 ONSC 1591 (CanLII):
In my respectful view, some of the authorities referred to by the plaintiff are not cases of negligent misrepresentation – as Van Rensburg J. pointed out at para. 73 of Silver v. Imax - Certification, they are cases of negligence or negligent mis-statement where the mis-statement had been made to someone other than the plaintiff, but the plaintiff suffered damages as a result.
