Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Lysko v. Braley, 2004 CanLII 40666 (ON SC):
In my view, there is a significant difference between making no representation, which is the complaint in this pleading, and making a representation or set of representations that reasonably leads or is calculated to mislead the recipient of the information to an inference which is not true. The latter is what occurred in Queen v. Cognos.
