What is the test for lack of consideration and bona fides in a real estate transaction?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Stewart v. Zacharuk, 1948 CanLII 184 (SK QB):

Even if there was no direct evidence of lack of consideration and bona fides, the transaction would, in my opinion, come well within the principle laid down in Koop v. Smith (1915) 1915 CanLII 26 (SCC), 8 WWR 1203, 51 SCR 554.
