The plaintiff brought a motion for leave to amend its statement of claim in an action for lost profits arising from the defendant's refusal to allow the plaintiff to bid on or be awarded two electrical contracting projects.
The defendant opposed certain amendments, arguing they asserted a new cause of action after the expiry of a limitation period.
The court granted leave to amend, finding that the proposed amendments merely provided additional facts and particulars arising out of the same factual matrix originally pleaded, and did not assert a new cause of action.
