  • the effect of the decision of the Supreme Court of Canada in Canada (Attorney General) v Fairmont Hotels Inc on the law of rectification for mistake
  • the continuing development of the Canadian jurisprudence applying the Tercon rule to the enforceability of exculpatory clauses
  • the impact of Uber Technologies Inc v Heller and Douez v Facebook, Inc on the doctrine of unconscionability
  • the potential influence of Southcott Estates Inc v Toronto District Catholic School Board on the law of mitigation and of specific performance

The book also incorporates reference to recent Canadian cases on doctrines such as estoppel, privity, interpretation, and appellate review, and discussion of recent leading authorities dealing with such matters as contractual interpretation and the application of the basic principles of formation to e-commerce.

The Law of Contracts is an indispensible resource for anyone interested in modern Canadian contract law.
