What constitutes a reasonable step to notify users of a premises of exclusion clause?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Apps v Grouse Mountain Resorts Ltd., 2019 BCSC 855 (CanLII):

There has been much litigation over what constitutes “reasonable steps” to notify users of premises of exclusion clauses. In the cases that deal with ski accidents while there are factual distinctions between signed waiver cases and day ticket cases where the user of the mountain does not sign anything, the principles of law are the same: Schuster v. Blackcomb Skiing Enterprises Ltd. Partnership, [1994] B.C.J. No. 2602 (S.C.) at para. 14.
