Statutory Interpretation - "In Connection With"

. Intercap Equity Inc. v. Bellman

In Intercap Equity Inc. v. Bellman (Ont CA, 2021) the Court of Appeal considered the statutory interpretation of the phrase "in connection with":
[58] This Court has repeatedly held that the phrase “in connection with” has a very broad meaning: Mantini v. Smith Lyons LLP (2003), 2003 CanLII 20875 (ON CA), 64 O.R. (3d) 505 (C.A.), at para. 19, leave to appeal refused, [2003] S.C.C.A. No. 344; Lawrence v. Toronto Humane Society (2006), 2006 CanLII 20224 (ON CA), 271 D.L.R. (4th) 329 (Ont. C.A.), at para. 84. The term “connection” means “there is some relationship between two things or activities – that they have something to do with each other”: Lawrence, at para. 85, citing Kitchener-Waterloo Real Estate Board Inc. v. Ontario Regional Assessment Commissioner, Region No. 21 (1986), 1986 CanLII 2660 (ON SC), 56 O.R. (2d) 94 (H.C.).
