EB v Order of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate in the Province of British Columbia, [2005] 3 SCR 45; 2005 SCC 60 is a leading case decided by the Supreme Court of Canada on vicarious liability in employment law and on the application of Bazley v Curry. The Court held that a residential school could not be held liable for the sexual assaults committed by a support staff member because there was not enough connection between the employee's position and the risk of harm.
