Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from 1964 Bay Inc. (Budget Car Rentals Toronto Limited) (Re), 2008 CanLII 54295 (ON SC):
They refer to Cartledge v. Brown, (1998), 27 C.P.C. (4th) 292 (S.C.J.) where Lax J. recognized that the implementation and monitoring of screening mechanisms should not bring together “the very individuals about whom the public will have the greatest concern that confidences could be shared”. Rather, an “independent and senior” member of the firm should be charged with that responsibility.
