New Ontario legislation has come into effect, making it easier
to defend "slip and fall" lawsuits involving snow or ice
by tightening the notice period for launching an action, tells
McLeish Orlando lawyer, William Harding to Canadian Lawyer in this piece written by Zena Olijnyk.
The article discusses Bill 118, the Act to amend the Occupier's
Liability Act. This Bill was enacted as a law earlier this year
and it gives plaintiffs in slip-and-fall accidents on snow or ice
only 60 days to file a notice of a claim. Previously, the amount of
time for filing a notice of a claim was two years, in compliance
with the Ontario Limitations Act, which
requires that a lawsuit be brought within two years of an
incident.
