The following excerpt is from Workers Canada Union, Local No. 401 v Aviscar Inc, 2015 CanLII 20440 (AB GAA):
It is plain, then, that the finder of fact is not compelled to discount the evidence of a witness on a point when an opposing witness has not been explicitly confronted and challenged with the contrary version. The fact finder instead is entitled to consider the entire context of the case – including whether fairness to witnesses and parties is achieved in some way other than the precise questions put to a witness in cross-examination – to decide whether to grant a remedy, what remedy is appropriate, and whether and by how much a witness’s credibility is impacted by a failure to follow the Rule in Browne v. Dunn.
