The Ontario Court of Appeal's decision in Wiebe v. Johnson & Johnson Inc. clarifies when the two-year limitation period begins under Ontario's Limitations Act, 2002, emphasizing that plaintiffs cannot delay the clock by failing to investigate potential claims when they knew or should have known the material facts.
