Present: La Forest, Sopinka, Gonthier, Cory, McLachlin, Iacobucci and Major JJ. on appeal from the court of appeal for alberta Trusts and trustees -- Breach of trust -- Liability of strangers to trust -- Knowing assistance -- Knowing receipt -- Insurance agent depositing premiums collected on insurer’s behalf into bank account -- Bank transferring funds to account of insurance agent’s parent company to reduce overdraft -- Whether bank liable for breach of trust on basis of knowing assistance or knowing receipt. D sold insurance to auto dealers. After collecting the premiums, D paid commissions and settled any current claims under the policies. The balance of the premiums was remitted on a monthly basis to the appellant insurance companies, the - 2 - underwriters of the policies. In December 1986, D and its parent company started banking with the respondents (the “bank”). D used one bank account for all its transactions. Through its senior officers, the bank was aware that insurance premiums were being deposited into that account. In May 1987, a “trip report” by one of the appellants’ employees indicated that D was reluctant to establish a trust account for the premiums but would do so if necessary. From June 1, D no longer settled claims under the insurance policies, with the result that the monthly premiums payable to the appellants increased significantly.
