Funny thing in Canada, there is no "pain and suffering".
If you sue someone your only intitled to money for medical bills and money you could have made working.
Steve Moores contract wasn't for 10 years. He's only intitled to what was left on his contract. The Colorado Avalanche already paid him that. As for his medical bills, being a Canadian and Ontario resident, OHIP payed most of that anyways!
The moore's parents, CAN'T get anything for "watching" unless they got pshycyatric help. -> Medical bills.
And again OHIP pays for that.
I'll be suprised if the judge doesn't throw this case out.
And on a personal note: I had an accedent were i was run over by a car in May 1998. I wasn't allowed to sue for "pain and suffering". All i got was the money i would have made working in a summer job. (4 months!) I even had to give proof that i actually had a job waiting!
If Steve Moore gets "pain and suffering" I get to sue the canadian courts. It's futile but...
