British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Flores v Burrows, 2018 BCSC 334 (CanLII):
The defendant says the labral tear issue was not caused by the Accident. In Andrews v. Mainster, 2014 BCSC 541, Justice Pearlman noted, at para. 189:
In determining causation, I also bear in mind that caution is required before drawing any inference that because one event follows another in time, the first event is the cause of the second: White v. Stonestreet, 2006 BCSC 801 at paras. 70-74.
