Understanding Limitations
According to Pioneer Corp. v. Godfrey, 2019 SCC 42 (CanLII) the Supreme Court makes two distinctions with respect to construing or interpreting the language of any given limitation statute. The following are the two classifications of limitations language:
- 1) When time runs from “the accrual of the cause of action”
- 2) When time runs from some other event which can be construed as occurring only when the injured party has knowledge of the injury sustained
