Compagnie de Gestion Alger Inc. v. The Queen, 2014 TCC 53 -- summary under Supply

By services, 28 November, 2015

The appellant delivered pizza through self-employed individuals acting as its agents. The costs of the pizza and delivery were separately itemized. In finding that there was a single supply, Paris J stated (at para. 37):

[T]here were two ways of obtaining the food: go to the appellant's establishment in person or place an order for delivery. In the first case, the food was made available to the customers while at the restaurant. In the second, the food was made available to the customers upon delivery. What differs is the manner in which the supply was made available to the customers. As for the interconnection and separation of elements, it is clear that it was possible to obtain the food without delivery. However, to obtain delivery without food is simply illogical. By separating the two elements, such that all that remains is the delivery, a viable and useful service or property cannot be obtained.
