SYNOPSIS

Lisa A. Peters, K.C., and Catherine Whitehead, review key decisions that have significantly developed or clarified the law of contract or notably reaffirmed longstanding contractual principles while at the same time illustrating their practical application. Topics include: severance of uncertain contractual terms, statutory signature requirements in the electronic age, clauses requiring a calculation or determination “in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied", distinguishing between guarantees and indemnities, and the contractual law of good faith.

ACKNOWLEDGING FIRST NATIONS TERRITORIES

This rebroadcast is hosted by CBABC, which is located on the traditional and unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples, including the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh and Musqueam First Nations. We encourage our members to explore the rich history and knowledge of Indigenous people, and to continue learning about their experience in Canada, past and present.
