How have courts interpreted statements relying upon statements relied upon by the applicants?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Walker v. Ontario (Housing), 1982 CanLII 3242 (ON SCDC):

Those examples are not exhaustive, and are merely illustrative of the type of statements relied upon by the applicants, and which statements appear in a number of cases. I think in considering those statements it is worthwhile to remind oneself of the Earl of Halsbury's caution in Quinn v. Leathern, [1901] A.C. 495 at p. 506, where he said this: . .. every judgment must be read as applicable to the particular facts proved, or assumed to be proved, since the generality of the expressions which may be found there are not intended to be expositions of the whole law, but governed and qualified by the particular facts of the case in which such expressions are to be found.
