A viral video on social media reveals that in Canada, homeowners can be sued if someone slips on their icy driveway and gets hurt. An Indian man in the video explains the law, saying homeowners must keep driveways free of snow and ice. He states, "You see this driveway? If I go here running, by chance I fall here as it's slippery, okay. And I fall and get injured, then do you know who will have to pay for this?" He mentions compensation could be from $20,000 to $40,000 depending on injury severity. Though he says he wouldn’t claim himself, he stresses that keeping the driveway safe is a legal duty. "So if your friend is going to catch a bus and by chance slips on the driveway, then send them this video, you can directly claim," he adds. Canadian law supports such claims under provincial occupiers’ liability laws. Homeowners must maintain a reasonably safe property by removing snow or using salt. Whether they are liable depends on if they took reasonable safety steps. Many cases are settled through homeowners' insurance, not out of pocket. Authorities consider weather, local rules, and response times before deciding liability.
