Assumption of Risks and Responsibilities

I acknowledge that I am aware that possible risks, dangers, and hazards are associated with and/or which might result from participation in the Trip and any related activities. These risks include but are not limited to: severe or fatal bodily injury; risks associated with travel to and from the location to be visited; and the possibility of bodily injury, including muscular injuries, soft tissue injuries, broken bones, bruises, scrapes, cuts, sprains, dislocations, head injuries, facial injuries, eye injuries, and/or dental injuries. Without limiting the foregoing, I also acknowledge that I am aware that not wearing a helmet while skiing or snowboarding will severely increase the risk of a head injury. I will not consume alcohol or any other substance that could impair senses or judgement prior to or while skiing or snowboarding.

I consent to receive first aid, medical treatment and evacuation (as applicable), if provided or arranged by SA, in the event of an accident, injury, or illness while on the Trip. I acknowledge the SA is under no obligation to provide or arrange any such first aid or medical treatment and that I may have to pay the costs of first aid or medical treatment or care, and/or evacuation, if provided to me.

I acknowledge that the SA has no control over and assumes no responsibility for any independent contractor providing any services for or other activities at or within or as part of the Trip.

Release of Liability, Waiver of Claims, and Indemnity Agreement

In consideration of the SA allowing me to participate in the Trip, I agree to the following:

  1. To assume and accept all risks arising out of, associated with, or related to my participation in the Trip and all related activities, even though such risks may have been caused by the acts or omissions of the SA (including without limitation, negligence, gross negligence, breach of contract, breach of any statutory or other duty of care, and/or breach of standard of care);
  2. To release the SA from any and all liability from any loss, damage, injury, or expense of any kind damage (including without limitation, loss or theft of my personal property) that I may suffer as a result of my participation in the Trip and any related activities due to any cause whatsoever; and
  3. To hold harmless and indemnify the SA from any and all claims, demands, actions, and costs of any kind whatsoever which might arise out of my participation in the Trip and all related activities and any matters or litigation arising therefrom (including without limitation, any litigation in which the validity or enforceability of this agreement is contested); and from any and all liability for any damage to the personal property of, or personal injury to, any third party resulting from my participation in the Trip and any related activities.

This Agreement shall be effective and binding upon my heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators, and representatives in the event of my death or incapacity. In entering into this Agreement, I am not relying upon any oral or written representations or statements made by the SA.

This agreement and any rights, duties, and obligations as between the parties to this agreement shall be governed by and interpreted solely in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and no other jurisdiction, regardless of the destination of the Trip or any jurisdiction through which the Trip may transit. Any litigation relating to this agreement or the Trip or any activities relating thereto shall be brought solely within the Province of Ontario and shall be within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of the Province of Ontario.

I agree that the purpose of this agreement is that it shall be an enforceable release of liability and indemnity as broad and inclusive as is permitted by Ontario law. If any portion or provision of this agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, I agree the remainder will continue in full force and effect and that any invalid provision will be modified or partially enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law to carry out the purpose of the agreement.
