Description

When the Supreme Court of Canada awarded Kevin Keays $500,000 in punitive damages on top of damages equal to fifteen months' reasonable notice in the 2008 case, Honda Canada Inc. v. Keays ("Keays"), it became one of the most controversial decisions to come out of Canada's highest court in over a decade.
