The following excerpt is from Camp Development Corporation v. Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority, 2010 BCCA 284 (CanLII):
It is important to note that Purchase v. Terrace did not concern the adequacy of an expropriation notice. Moreover, the statement that “exact purposes” need to be set out is obiter. However, I do accept that it is a fundamental requirement of an expropriation notice that the purpose of the expropriation be set out. The expropriation notice in this case did set out the purpose of the expropriation, and it is not arguable that it failed to do so with adequate precision.
