New sections on the nature of damage in negligence, and losses beyond the scope of the risk. Updated analysis of waivers and exclusion clauses, defamation cases decided pursuant to anti-SLAPP legislation, the conversion of cheques, cyber-bullying and the non-consensual recording and distribution of intimate images. Updated discussion of the use of deadly force in defence of property, the use of drones in the context of privacy and trespass to airspace, the illegality defence, nuisance, conspiracy, the unlawful means tort, and Charter damages. New review problems and updates notes that include many recentcases and articles."--Quatrième de couverture.
