The Wawanesa Mutual Insurance Company v Shirley Wade, 2015 NBCA 43
Wade, who was involved in a car accident, was insured with the defendant Wawanesa. Wade’s insurance policy provided coverage for loss of income. The benefits were initially paid, then denied, and then reinstated on a retroactive basis at a lower amount. Wade sued Wawanessa on the grounds that her benefits had been improperly reduced and that Wawanessa had acted in bad faith.
