When the Supreme Court of Canada released the decision in Marchi v. the City of Nelson, a media storm erupted. Headlines proclaimed that local governments could now be sued for negligent snow clearing activities, and reporters began calling MIABC members asking if they now had to double their annual snow clearing budgets. But the decision in Marchi did not substantially change the law, rather it simply clarified its application. Join Tom, Megan, and Sherman as they unpack the decision in Marchi v. the City of Nelson and explain what it means for local government service delivery.
