46.請依下文回答第 46 題至第 50 題A man who became depressed, anxious, and phobic about flies after finding a dead insect in his bottledwater has lost a claim for over $300,000 in compensation from the bottling company. The Supreme Court ofCanada said Culligan of Canada Ltd. wasn’t legally liable for the psychological damage suffered by MartinMustapha, a hair stylist from Windsor, Ont..Mustapha sued after finding a dead fly, and later half of another, in an unopened bottle of water delivered forhis home dispenser. He never drank any of the water, but said he became obsessed with thoughts of dead flies,couldn’t sleep, and was constantly on edge—to the point where his business and his life suffered.Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin didn’t question the fact that Mustapha had suffered real psychologicalharm. Medical evidence tendered at trial three years ago indicated he was afflicted with a psychiatric illnessthat was “debilitating and had a significant impact on his life,” said McLachlin. But she also noted thatexperts had described Mustapha’s reaction as “unusual and extreme” and concluded that Culligan could nothave reasonably foreseen the harm he suffered—a key legal test for compensation in such cases.
