The plaintiff initiated an action against Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) for damages resulting from a slip and fall on January 3, 2011.

TCHC brought a motion for summary judgment, arguing that the plaintiff's injuries occurred on a road owned and maintained by the City of Toronto, thus precluding TCHC's liability.

The court granted summary judgment, dismissing the action against TCHC, finding no genuine issue requiring a trial.

The uncontradicted evidence showed the fall occurred on municipal property, and there was no evidence TCHC had assumed maintenance responsibilities or contributed to the incident.

Costs were awarded to TCHC.

The plaintiff sued the defendants for injuries sustained after falling from the roof of their home while performing renovations.

The defendants brought a motion for summary judgment to dismiss the action.

The court found that the plaintiff was acting as a contractor and the defendants, as occupiers, had no duty to provide safety equipment or supervise his work.

The court granted the motion and dismissed the action, finding no genuine issue requiring a trial.
