The language employed by the members of the court in this case is the language of estoppel. The judges all refer to the principal' s holding out the agent, of apparent authority to contract as he did, of making him an ostensible principal. It is suggested, however, that another way of looking at this case is by saying that once a man is put into a position of manager of a business which normally or usually carries with it the power to transact certain kinds of legal acts, then such a manager has authority to do whatever is so normal or usual.  1, record 1, English, - ostensible%20principal

Étant donné que la corporation, telle qu'elle est définie dans le Code civil du Québec, n'existe pas sous ce terme en France, certains auteurs jugent qu'il s'agit d'un anglicisme et que le terme est à éviter. Ils favorisent l'emploi du nom générique, en l'occurrence, du terme «municipalité». Cependant celui-ci désigne plus précisément le territoire, tandis que «corporation» est le corps public qui exerce les pouvoirs du gouvernement. Tant que le mot «corporation» reste dans la législation, nous sommes tenus de l'employer.  6, record 4, French, - corporation%20municipale

The term "licence" is not invariably translated by the French "licence" although it is in most cases. The reason is that in English the term does not necessarily imply a business or occupation as does the French :"driver's licence" and "marriage licence" are examples of this. One must therefore be careful in translating "licence"--its usual French equivalent is "licence", but in some cases it can be "permis". An important characteristic distinguishing "licence" from "permit" is the fact that the former is not issued directly by the government but rather by a competent authority or by local authorities, while any of the three groups mentioned can issue a permit. Also, the licence is usually granted for an extended period of time whereas the permit normally authorizes an act of short duration. For example, we say "driver's licence", but "learner's permit".  3, record 5, English, - licence
