Does facsimile service constitute personal service?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Pryor v. Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, 2007 CanLII 31568 (ON SC):
In OSPCA v. Belair, released August 11, 2006, Nadeau J. determined that facsimile service would constitute personal service as required by the Act. I agree with that proposition especially when there is no issue that the appellant would have [page762] received notice on the dates outlined in the affidavits. In this case, not only was there service by facsimile but also by correspondence dated the same day.
