Morgan van Breda, a resident of the province of Ontario, was injured while vacationing at Club Resort
Question:
Morgan van Breda, a resident of the province of Ontario, was injured while vacationing at Club Resort in Cuba. Van Breda booked the trip utilizing the website of Sport au Soleil, an Ontario-based travel agency. Club Resort employed Canadian professionals and tour operators, including Sport au Soleil, for advertising, promotion and bookings. Van Breda sued Sport au Soleil and Club Resort in Ontario for negligence. Club Resort sought to have the litigation dismissed on the basis that Cuba was a more appropriate forum. Does Canada or Cuba have a more substantial connection to this litigation? Was Ontario a more appropriate forum for van Breda’s lawsuit? Why or why not?
