Application for leave to appeal dismissed by Supreme Court of Canada. No basis for claim against CMHC.
The BC Supreme Court and the BC Court of Appeal each held that CMHC did not owe a duty of care to individual home owners, and accordingly could not be sued by owners of “leaky condos”. [See Condo Cases Across Canada, Part 20, November 2007, and Part 25, February 2009.]
The plaintiff’s application for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada was dismissed without reasons.
