What is the test for commonality and commonity in a personal injury case?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Sharbern Holding Inc. v. Vancouver Airport Centre Ltd., et al, 2005 BCSC 232 (CanLII):
With respect to the first factor, an issue will be common only where its resolution is applicable to all who are to be bound by it. The requirement of commonality means that “success for one is success for all” (Metera v. Financial Planning Group (2003), 332 A.R. 244, 2003 ABQB 326 [Metera], per Slatter J. at para. 54).
