The following excerpt is from 0956375 B.C. Ltd. v Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen, 2020 BCSC 743 (CanLII):

The plaintiffs submit that the true nature of the relationship between 447857 and 0956375 and 1016214 was one of agency, not trust, and, therefore neither trust principles nor the rule in Foss v. Harbottle apply.
