Interprovincial product liability litigation : jurisdiction, enforcement and choice of law in Quebec private international law / David Appel.: RG23-66/1982E-PDF
"This study deals with interprovincial litigation in the area of product liability. Such interprovincial litigation may arise in two ways: A Quebec consumer buys, in Quebec or elsewhere in Canada, a defective product which is manufactured or distributed by someone with no place of business or assets in Quebec. When does the consumer have a right to institute proceedings in a Quebec court? What jurisdiction does a Quebec court have over a non-Quebec defendant? A non-Quebec consumer has obtained judgement from another province against a manufacturer or distributor who has assets, a place of business or a residence in Quebec. When can the consumer obtain execution of this judgement in Quebec courts? In each of the two situations above, a third problem arises, that of the rules of choice of law: what law applies to an action instituted in Quebec by a consumer?"--Summary.
