Courts are required to enforce the contract as it is written and to rely primarily on the plain, ordinary meaning of the words that the parties have chosen. The court assigns as reasonable a meaning as possible to vague or ambiguous terms. If the contract has been drafted by one of the parties, any ambiguity in language will be construed against that party in favour of the other.
