Nova Scotia termination clause fails to displace common law notice

Source-bounded case notice. Binder hasn't independently reviewed the complete reasons or the outcome. This isn't verified judgment analysis.

The Nova Scotia Supreme Court found a termination provision ambiguous and awarded a dismissed employee eight months of reasonable notice including commissions and benefits. In Brocklehurst v Micco Companies, a reference to statutory severance and notice didn't clearly limit the employee to minimum standards.
