Appeal dismissed; limitation period did not begin until plaintiff could reasonably discover elements of oppression claim.
The appellants appealed a summary judgment decision finding that the limitation period for the respondent's tort and oppression claims had not expired.
The appellants argued the limitation period began when the respondent knew the corporate defendant vacated the premises and consulted a lawyer.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, agreeing with the motion judge that the respondent did not have, and could not have reasonably discovered, information about the transfer of the corporate defendant's business and contracts to another corporation at that time.
Funeral director's licence revoked for falsifying embalming records and attempting to implicate employees.
The applicant, a funeral director and owner of a funeral home, appealed a decision of the Discipline Committee suspending her licence for falsifying embalming records.
The applicant claimed to have performed six embalmings that were actually performed by another intern.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal conducted a fresh hearing and found overwhelming evidence that the applicant lied about performing the embalmings and attempted to implicate her employees in the deception.
Finding that the applicant lacked the integrity and honesty required to operate as a funeral director, the Tribunal substituted the Discipline Committee's suspension with an order revoking the applicant's licence.
