Lac Minerals Ltd. V. International Corona Resources Ltd. - The Issues

The Issues

There were three questions before the Supreme Court of Canada:

  • did a fiduciary relationship exist between Corona and Lac which was breached by Lac's acquisition of the property?
  • did Lac misuse confidential information obtained by it from Corona and thereby deprive Corona of the property?
  • if either question were answered affirmatively, what was the appropriate remedy?

Famous quotes containing the word issues:

    The hard truth is that what may be acceptable in elite culture may not be acceptable in mass culture, that tastes which pose only innocent ethical issues as the property of a minority become corrupting when they become more established. Taste is context, and the context has changed.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    How to attain sufficient clarity of thought to meet the terrifying issues now facing us, before it is too late, is ... important. Of one thing I feel reasonably sure: we can’t stop to discuss whether the table has or hasn’t legs when the house is burning down over our heads. Nor do the classics per se seem to furnish the kind of education which fits people to cope with a fast-changing civilization.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
