I understand that, but even under the more expansive American standard, this woman suffered injury (if proved). To suggest that she shouldn't have her day in court isn't very wise. The fact that we have an out-of-control tort system and unscrupulous personal injury attorneys is a side-issue. And the fact that she used this product in this fashion is simply irrelevant.

I didn't say she shouldn't have her day in Court but, merely offered my opinion as to how it will likely go.
As for your claim "she used the product in this fashion is simply irrelevant", surely there's a line somewhere or folks would be getting rich after thinking pineapples might make perfectly acceptable suppositories?
I contrasted - I believe accurately - the overall general difference in grounds for & awards resulting from suits for damages here & Stateside primarily for the benefit of American FRiends less knowledgeable than yourself as to sometimes subtle and/or unexpected differences between our countries .

BTW & unrelated, you may want save this money-grubbing gem I happened to stumble across the other day with respect to moonbat Mel Hurtig for the next time someone takes him seriously and/or attempts to portray him as someone American patriots should rightly be listening to.
