Judgment was rendered on / Jugement rendu le:
3.10.1994
McLACHLIN J. -- I have before me seven motions to intervene on various of these appeals. I will deal with each in turn. The applications also included requests relating to the length of factums and raised concerns about additional materials which the proposed interventions might entail. These aspects of the applications are not dealt with in these reasons and are deferred to a later date.
Application of the Alliance of Tribal Councils
This applicant seeks to leave to intervene on the Lewis and Nikal appeals. It was an interveners in the courts below. For the past decade the Alliance has been immersed in the issues raised by these appeals. I am satisfied that its application meets the requirements of Rule 18 and would allow the application.
Application of the First Nations Summit
This applicant seeks leave to intervene on the N.T.V., Gladstone and Van Der Peet appeals. The application was opposed on the basis that this applicant would offer no new perspective. The applicant represents 140 of 197 Indians bands in British Columbia. It is involved in treaty negotiations on their behalf. I am satisfied that these appeals may impact on these negotiations and that the First Nations Summit has a unique and helpful perspective to offer. I would allow the application.
Application of the Attorney-General for British Columbia
The Attorney-General seeks leave to intervene on the N.T.C., Gladstone, Lewis and Nikal appeals. It intervened below. There is no doubt of its interest or ability to make a useful contribution on the appeal. I would allow the application.
Application of the C.N.R.
The C.N.R. seeks leave to intervene on the N.T.C., Lewis, and Nikal appeals. It intervened in the courts below. The application is opposed by those appellants. I am satisfied that the interests of the C.N.R. may be affected by the outcome of these appeals and that the C.N.R. has a unique and valuable perspective to offer. I would allow the application.
Application of the B.C. Fisheries Survival Coalition and the B.C. Wildlife Federation
This is a joint application. The applicants seek leave to intervene in all five appeals. The Coalition was an intervener in the proceedings below; the Wildlife Federation was not. The Coalition represents the commercial fishing interests; the Federation represents sports fishermen. The interests of both may well be affected by the outcome of these appeals and I am satisfied that they will both make a contribution not otherwise available to the court. I would allow the application.
Application of the Fisheries Council of B.C.
This applicant seeks leave to intervene in all five appeals. The application is opposed. The applicant was an intervener below. It represents fish processors and is concerned with all aspects of the fishery, from harvesting to international marketing. Unlike the B.C. Fisheries Survival Coalition, it claims to count aboriginal fishers among the interests it represents. I am satisfied that it offers a distinct perspective and may assist on the appeal, and that it will not, as contended, merely duplicate the submissions of others. I would allow the application.
Application of the Atlantic Salmon Federation
This applicant seeks to intervene in the N.T.C., Gladstone and Van Der Peet appeals. The application is opposed. The applicant was not an intervener below. It seeks to put before the court information and submissions on how the decisions on these appeals might affect the Atlantic salmon fishery. Its goal would be to urge the Court to reject extension of any commercial aboriginal right of fishery to situations where stocks may be endangered. This argument relates to the "justification" issue which was raised below but upon which the courts below did not pronounce. It therefore may or may not figure on the appeal. If the issue does arise, it appears that the concern expressed by this applicant for the need to preserve endangered species is shared by all parties to this appeal, and is one which may be expected to be fully defended, should the need arise, by the Attorneys-General. The aboriginal interest claims relevant to the Atlantic fishery are largely related to treaties, while the claims at issue on the appeals do not. Finally, the intervention would involve introducing a new subject matter to the appeals, namely the state of the Atlantic salmon fishery. These considerations lead me to conclude that the general perspective offered by this applicant will be put before the Court by others, and that the details it seeks to add would expand the appeal into new and different areas of dispute. I would dismiss the application.

LE JUGE EN CHEF (oralement) -- À la majorité, nous sommes d'avis d'accueillir le pourvoi aux motifs de M. le juge Fish de la Cour d'appel du Québec. Madame le juge L'Heureux-Dubé dissidente aurait rejeté l'appel étant d'avis que l'adresse du juge au jury ne contenait pas d'erreur de nature à priver l'appelant d'un procès juste et équitable. L'appel est accueilli et un nouveau procès est ordonné. |
THE CHIEF JUSTICE (orally) -- A majority of us would allow the appeal for the reasons given by Fish J.A. of the Quebec Court of Appeal. Madame Justice L'Heureux-Dubé, dissenting, would have dismissed the appeal, being of the view that the judge's charge to the jury did not contain any error such as would deprive the appellant of a fair and equitable trial. The appeal is allowed and a new trial is ordered.

Nature of the case:
Torts - Negligence - Real property - Contracts - Economic loss - Whether an immediate successor in title can recover damages for pure and direct economic loss resulting from the negligence of a contractor originally retained to construct a building - Whether in a situation involving the collapse of a portion of the exterior cladding of a residential building, with resultant danger to the remainder of the building, unit-owners and passers-by, the entire cost of replacing the masonry can properly be described as "pure economic loss" - Whether the law in Canada is contradictory and unsettled on these points - Whether the maxim "caveat emptor" is applicable when realty is neither sold nor transferred but is, rather, converted into a condominium - Whether the foregoing questions should properly be dealt with by way of summary judgment without all relevant evidence being before the Court - Whether the Court of Appeal made palpable and overriding errors. |
Nature de la cause:
Responsabilité délictuelle - Négligence - Immeubles - Contrats - Perte économique - Une personne qui tient son titre de propriété directement du propriétaire précédent peut‑elle obtenir des dommages‑intérêts pour une perte purement économique résultant directement de la négligence de l'entrepreneur qui avait construit l'immeuble? - Dans un cas où il s'agit de l'effondrement d'une partie du revêtement extérieur d'un immeuble d'habitation, entraînant du danger pour le reste de l'immeuble, pour les propriétaires des unités de logement et pour les passants, la totalité du coût du remplacement de la maçonnerie peut‑elle être à juste titre qualifiée de «perte purement économique»? - Les règles de droit canadiennes sont‑elles contradictoires et incertaines sur ces points? - La maxime «caveat emptor» s'applique-t‑elle lorsqu'un bien immeuble ne fait l'objet ni d'une vente ni d'un transfert mais est plutôt transformé en condominium? - Convient‑il de répondre aux questions précédentes par voie de jugement sommaire, sans que la cour ne dispose de la totalité des preuves pertinentes? - La Cour d'appel a‑t‑elle commis des erreurs manifestes et dominantes? |
