Clark v. Canadian National Railway Co. - [1988] 2 SCR 680 - 1988-12-15
Supreme Court JudgmentsConstitutional law
19. In Williams v. Canadian National Railway Co., supra, a case similar to the present one and relied upon here by the judge at first instance, Mac‑ Keigan C.J.N.S. indicated that, absent authority, he would have found s. 342(1) ultra vires. [...] Howell C.J.M. held, however, that Parliament did not intend in s. 306(1) to displace the limitation period prescribed by s. 12 of the Manitoba Employers' Liability Act. This was similar to the view taken in Williams, supra, and by Dickson J. in the case at bar. [...] In Williams v. Canadian National Railway Co., supra, the Appeal Division of the Nova Scotia Supreme Court considered itself bound by Pszenicnzy, although MacKeigan C.J. indicated, at p. 89, that he would have decided Williams differently if he were not bound by authority:
