Sean Sinclair is Placed on the Nice List

The Canadian Cancer Society’s Jail-N-Bail is all in fun. Each year, normally upstanding citizens find themselves under arrest. They go before a “judge” at the event and then spend time in “jail” while raising “bail” in donations for the fight against cancer. Upon release, they receive confirmation that their good work has allowed them to be placed on the Canadian Cancer Society’s Nice List.

Sean Sinclair has done his time in this year’s Jail and we are happy to report his efforts have returned him to the office.

Congratulations and thank you Sean.

Pereira’s Article on Material Disclosure Published in Canadian Underwriter

The Canadian Underwriter recently published Jennifer Pereira’s insurance law article on material disclosure.  The article references the recent Provincial Court decision Zheng v. John Galon Insurance Services Ltd. which ruled in favour of SGI and Galon Insurance Brokers. In the decision the Saskatchewan court found that a plaintiff knew, or should have known, that his decision to rent to tenants was material to the risk of insuring his home.
