Canada Supreme Court ReportsJames Allen." This went on for five years when, Allen having again become embarrassed and unable to meet his engagements, the plaintiff brought an action against Hechler on notes signed as above and for the price of goods sold to Allen. [...] Allen promised to pay in full and it was just carried on; the account was continued with the same heading, John Allen & Sons, after the trust deed." [...] It must have been present to the minds of both Forsyth and Allen when the promise to pay in full was made that Allen was to continue to carry on business.

Dziwenka et al. v. R. et al. - [1972] SCR 419 - 1971-10-05
Supreme Court JudgmentsTorts
In setting aside this judgment, Mr. Justice Allen, whose reasons for judgment were adopted by the other members of the Appellate Division, concluded that the appellant’s “momentary inattention was ‘the sole author of his injury’” and that his action should accordingly be dismissed. [...] I agree with Mr. Justice Allen that on the basis of the authorities cited by him and many other authorities, it is well established that an appellate court is in as good a position as a trial judge to draw the proper inferences from primary facts. [...] For all these reasons, as well as for those so fully set forth in the reasons for judgment of Allen J.A. in the Appellate Division, I would dismiss this appeal with costs.

Waisman and Ross et al. v. Crown Trust Company - [1970] SCR 553 - 1970-03-02
Supreme Court JudgmentsPriorities and hypothecs
The unanimous judgment of the Appellate Division was delivered by Allen J.A. The basis of the decision is found in the following passages in his reasons: [...] Allen J.A. relied on the following passage from the unanimous judgment of this Court delivered by my brother Ritchie in Clarkson Co. Ltd. et al. v. Ace Lumber Ltd. et al.[2], at p. 114: [...] It is quite true, as pointed out by Allen J.A., that a firm as such is not a legal entity, but the use of the firm name is a convenient and usual way of describing the individual members who collectively make up the firm, and, in my view, in the circumstances of this case its use was equivalent to naming the partners.

[...] Despite the fact that the Allen Committee had not recommended it, and in order to discourage the kind of strike suits that had become common in the United States under more investor-friendly regimes, the Canadian Securities Administrators recommended that in addition to reducing the burden of proof on investors, the new
