The Supreme Court of Canada unanimously rejected an insured's claim that it had a right to avoid British Columbia Courts and have its British Columbia insurance policies interpreted exclusively by a U.S. Federal Court. The Insured believed it would receive a more favourable interpretation of the policies in Washington State, hence its desire to litigate in that forum. I was one of the lawyers for one of the insurers in the Action.
