1. Negligence Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. N.1
2. Case law implied bill of rights:
Summary: The Bank Taxation Act; The Credit of Alberta Regulation Act; and the Accurate News and Information Act, SCR 100 ,1938
The Supreme Court of Canada ruled on the Reference re Alberta Statutes. It found that the Accurate News and Information Act, along with the others submitted to it for evaluation, was ultra vires (beyond the powers of) the Alberta government. In the case of the Accurate News and Information Act, the court found that the Canadian constitution included an "implied bill of rights" that protected freedom of speech as being critical to a parliamentary democracy. This determined that the provinces cannot override fundamental rights.

Jones v. Tsige, 2012
Summary: The Ontario Court of Appeal declared that the common law in Canada recognizes a right to personal privacy, more specifically identified as a "tort of intrusion upon seclusion", as well as considering that appropriation of personality is already recognized as a tort in Ontario law.
