Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Bishop v. Western Trust Co., 1922 CanLII 94 (SK QB):
Anglin, J. in McKillop & Benjafield v. Alexander, supra, says at p. 583: I am of the opinion that a caveat when properly lodged prevents the acquisition or the bettering or increasing of any interest in the land, legal or equitable, adverse to or in derogation of the claim of the caveator— at all events, as it exists at the time when the caveat is lodged.
