The following excerpt is from Legood v. Atlantic Wholesalers Ltd., 2002 NBQB 41 (CanLII):

A customer in a place of business has a duty to take reasonable care for her own safety and should the customer breach this duty and as a result contribute to the cause of her injury, then a degree of fault should be apportioned to her for the injuries suffered.
