Rick wanted to go on the zip lines at Grouse Mountain. Before he was permitted to go on the zip lines he was asked to sign a waiver of liability contract.The Grouse employee working at the zip lines told Rick not to worry about clause 3 of the contract which excluded Grouse Mountain from liability for negligence because Grouse never enforced this clause. This clause was printed clearly and was not removed or crossed out when Rick signed the contract.As a result of the employee's negligence in not harnessing Rick properly, Rick fell from the zip line, breaking both legs.
