The following excerpt is from D. B. v. Parkland School Division No. 63 Saskatchewan, 2004 SKCA 113 (CanLII):
The principle that a vicariously liable party is bound by the same procedural considerations as the party at fault finds support in Doe v. O’Dell[30] where Swinton J. held that a diocese was not entitled to claim a limitation period which was not available to the priest.
