How has the privative clause been dealt with?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Shuswap Lake Utilities Ltd. v. Mattison, 2006 BCSC 1546 (CanLII):

In my view, the issue of the privative clause has now been dealt with most recently by our Court of Appeal in Stark v. Vancouver School District No. 39, 2006 BCCA 124 [“Stark”]. This was an appeal from the decision of Ballance J., 2005 BCSC 931.
