Document Summary
He had no glasses, light, pencil or paper: very disjointed question and answer between contest judge and mr. ranger and gets the answer wrong, sues for damages. What was advertised here, you buy the cigarettes, you get the skill testing question. A test over the phone was no test at all. Mr. ranger did not get what he was promised. Trial court finds in his favour and awards 10k, they did not give him the opportunity to do as they promised. On appeal - advertisement became an issue, was somewhat misleading in that case. There never was a test of the plaintiff. By failing to test the respondent correctly, appellant repudiated their contract. No warranties - the service is provided on an as is and as available basis. Not promising that the service is ever going to work and you still have to pay for it. Limitation or liability - if negligence results in death telus will pay 20$
