Case Banque Nationale v Soucisse is quoted in case law across Canada since 1981 in regards to obligations by Canadian banks and other financial institutions to reveral to the estate of a deaceased person the existance, if any, of guarantees provided by the deceased, and their revocable character.
In 1959, a Dr. J.R. Groulx signed a letter of guarantee promising to pay Banque Nationale for all
present and future loans made to his son-in-law, Maurice Robitaille. The guarantee contained a
clause that it would be binding on the estate and heirs until cancelled. After Dr. Groulx died in
1963, Robitaille continued to borrow from the bank and a few years later, the bank sued Dr.
Groulx’s widow and two daughters for repayment of money which had been borrowed after Dr.
Groulx’s death.
