[14] Karroll v. Silver Star Mountain (1988), 1988 CanLII 3094 (BC SC), 33 B.C.L.R. (2d) 160 @166 (S.C.B.C.) suggests that there is no general requirement on a party tendering a document for signature to take reasonable steps to apprise the party signing of any onerous terms, or ensure that he reads and understands them. Only where the party knew or should have known that the signing party was not consenting to such terms does an obligation arise.
