What is the test for oppression and unfair prejudice?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Wu v Peel Condominium Corporation No. 245, 2015 ONSC 2801 (CanLII):

The courts have not drawn clear lines between any of the three statutory tests and have often found that conduct may fit into one or more of the categories. Unfair prejudice and unfair disregard are less rigorous tests than oppression. Niedermeier v. York Condominium Corporation No. 50 (2006), 45 R.P.R. (4th) 182, at para. 4 (“Niedermeir”)
