Authored by law professors from across Canada, the book is designed to serve as a versatile teaching tool, with extensive notes and questions throughout the text. Extremely revised this 11th edition offers introductory teachings on the interactions of Indigenous and Aboriginal law with the common law of contract. The wide variety of topics discussed includes: offer and acceptance, certainty of terms, enforcement of promises, privity of contract, contingent agreements, exclusion clauses, mistake, frustration and remedies. Each chapter provides detailed commentary, case analysis and extracts, clear presentation of the different approaches to contract law and relevant references to the legislation of Canada's jurisdictions.
