hris, who is an engine mechanic, purchased a new machine to diagnose problems with engines from Engine Diagnostics Ltd. The contract stated it would be delivered October 1. Immediately before signing the agreement Chris and the salesperson for Engine Diagnostics Ltd. discussed the fact that Chris had to have the machine on October 1 or else he/Chris would lose a contract with Saint Mary's University to service and fix all their generators.

However, the machine was not delivered until November 1 and Chris lost the contract with Saint Mary's University.

Chris is certain he is entitled to sue Engine Diagnostics Ltd. for breach of contract. The one thing he is not sure about is whether or not the potential income he lost due to losing the Saint Mary's contract isremote. Is it? Why/why not?
