In what circumstances will a plaintiff have to prove that there is a real and substantial possibility of a future event leading to income loss?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Block v Bal, 2019 BCSC 1852 (CanLII):

In a subsequent decision, Perren v. Lalari, 2010 BCCA 140 at para. 32, Garson J.A. restated the proposition that the plaintiff must prove that there is a real and substantial possibility of a future event leading to an income loss and, once proven, then the plaintiff may prove the quantification of the loss of earning capacity on either an earnings approach or a capital asset approach. Where the loss is not readily measurable, the capital asset approach will be more useful than the earnings approach.
