Does the test of reasonableness apply to whether a notice is misleading or confusing?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from The Hastings Park Conservancy v. City of Vancouver, 2006 BCSC 1261 (CanLII):
In Guimond v. Vancouver (City), supra, Davies J. found that the City complied with the statutory notice requirements as the content of the notice was not misleading or confusing. In East Broadway, Shaw J. concluded that the test used by Davies J. in Guimond did not exclude the test of reasonableness adopted by Shaw J., but that whether a notice is confusing or misleading is an aspect of reasonableness.
