A) Jose is entitled to sue for a number of different torts at the same time and he is not required to sue for one particular tort that he believes will lead to the best result.
B) If Jose sues for an intentional tort, he must prove that Sharona intended to cause harm to him.
C) If Jose sues for a negligence tort, he must prove that Sharona deliberately neglected to protect him from harm.
D) While the common law traditionally recognized a few strict liability torts, those torts frequently created unfair results, and consequently they have now been abolished in Canada.
