  • Waiver and Release of Liability

  • WARNING: BY SIGNING THIS LEGAL DOCUMENT, YOU GIVE UP CERTAIN LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SUE. READ THIS RELEASE CAREFULLY.

    In consideration of being permitted to participate as a volunteer in the role of fruit picker (the “EVENT”) with Operation Fruit Rescue Edmonton Society, or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies (collectively “OFRE”), I acknowledge and agree to the following:

    1.Assumption and Acknowledgment of Risks I understand that if I participate in the EVENT, I will be subjected to dangers, and I will be exposed to risks and dangers to me and to my possessions. I understand and acknowledge that there are inherent risks and hazards associated with the EVENT and the harvesting of fruit, including, but not limited to: falling from a tree, falling off a ladder, allergic reactions, injury from tree branches, falling objects, injury from equipment or damage property owned by another individual. I acknowledge that the EVENT requires me to work on uneven surfaces or areas where tripping hazards may be present. I recognize that OFRE may not vet or supervise all or any of the EVENT during my participation in the EVENT and that generally there are many aspects of the EVENT that are inherently dangerous and will be outside of the control of OFRE. I agree to be accountable in all respects for my own actions and not to ask OFRE to accept the consequences thereof.

    2. Waiver of Liability Regardless of the cause, nature or severity of any loss or injury that I may suffer as a result of participating in the EVENT, I hereby agree to remise, release, and forever discharge OFRE from all suits, claims, in both law and equity, and agree to not sue or otherwise make a claim against OFRE or against any of OFRE board members, officers, employees, contractors, volunteers or agents (the “Protected Persons”), for any loss, damage, injury or expense that I or my next of kin may incur, suffer or be made subject to as a result of or arising out of my participation in, or agreement to participate in, the EVENT, regardless of how severe and regardless of how such loss, damage, injury or expense arises or who causes such loss, damage, injury or expense. Even if such loss, damage, injury or expense is attributable in whole or in part to breach of contract, breach of duty, failure to warn, negligence or some other wrongful act or omission of OFRE or the Protected Persons. For greater certainty I hereby absolutely and unconditionally release OFRE and the Protected Persons from any such claims. Without limitation to the foregoing, in no event is OFRE responsible for the failures, wrongdoings or defalcations of agents or third parties even if the same was foreseeable or otherwise within the control of OFRE to prevent.

    3. General Any ambiguities in this Agreement shall be interpreted in favour of OFRE. This Agreement and the protections given to OFRE and Protected Persons under this Agreement may not be modified or varied except in writing by OFRE and no oral modification or variance shall be valid nor shall any variation or modification be implied by the actions or statements of OFRE or Protected Persons even if done or made after the date hereof. If part of this Agreement is unenforceable for any reason, the rest of this Agreement remains in full force and effect. This Agreement shall be effective and binding upon my heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators and assigns. This Agreement is governed by the laws of Alberta.

    4. Unconditional I have not relied upon any promises, assurances or other statements from OFRE in making the decision to sign this document nor are there any conditions that must be satisfied, or any events that must occur, before it is binding upon me. This waiver and release is binding now and is unconditional.

    I HAVE BEEN ADVISED NOT TO SIGN THIS AGREEMENT UNLESS I HAVE READ IT AND UNDERSTAND IT. HOWEVER, IF I SIGN THIS AGREEMENT I AGREE TO BE BOUND BY IT WHETHER I HAVE READ IT OR NOT AND WHETHER I UNDERSTAND IT OR NOT.
