The rules of contract interpretation aim to give effect to the parties' intent as expressed in their contract. This means that the court will try to interpret the terms in the way that the parties intended them to mean at the time they entered into the contract. This is done by looking at the language used in the contract, the context of the agreement, and the circumstances surrounding the formation of the contract. The court will not allow one party to dictate the intent of the other party, nor will it rely solely on what the parties now claim they intended after the fact.
