Nova Fish Farms Inc. v. Cold Ocean Salmon Inc.

The Court upheld the trial judge's factual finding that Nova Fish breached Sections 8.1 and 8.4 by failing to act for 16 months but held as a matter of law that a 'time is of the essence' clause does not apply to provisions that fix no definite time (eg 'promptly' or 'commercially reasonable efforts'); therefore Cold Ocean was not entitled to terminate and Nova Fish was entitled to specific performance.
