S.22 (“SPPA ”) limits the authority to award costs to matters involving conduct that is unreasonable, frivolous, vexatious or done in bad faith.

Supreme Court of Canada Clarifies Tort Liability Exposure for Public Authorities
Posted on December 15, 2021 | By: Ryan Shaw
- In a recent landmark decision, the Supreme Court of Canada (“SCC”) clarified when public authorities will be exposed to tort liability in relation to decisions which result in injury to the public. The SCC unanimously ruled in Nelson (City) v Marchi, 2021 SCC 41 (Marchi) that municipalities will not be granted immunity when facing allegations of negligence unless the impugned act or failure to act was a core policy decision which falls within a new framework outlined by the SCC. The new framework for determining when core policy immunity arises will have a far-reaching impact for underwriters of public authorities and those in the industry who deal with claims involving public authorities.
