in the Province or Territory in which the Equine Activities are Provided by the Host
WARNING: THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. READ IT CAREFULLY!
Every Person Must Read and Understand this Waiver Before Participating in Equine Activities
The following waiver of all claims, release from all liability, assumption of all risks, agreement not to sue and other terms of this
agreement are entered into by me (the Participant) with and for the benefit of:________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________, its directors, officers,
employees, volunteers, business operators, agents and site property owners or lessees (collectively the "Host"). Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, "Equine Activities" includes but is not limited to trail rides, pack trips and riding instructions provided
by the "Host" to the Participant.
Initial Each Item below after Reading and Understanding each item:
_______1. I am aware that there are inherent dangers, hazards and risks (collectively "Risks") associated with "Equine Activities" and
injuries resulting from these "Risks" are a common occurrence. I am aware that the "Risks" of "Equine Activities" mean
those dangerous conditions which are an integral part of "Equine Activities", including but not limited to:
(a) the propensity of any equine to behave in ways that may result in injury, harm or death to persons on or around them
and to potentially collide with, bite or kick other animals, people or objects;
(b) the unpredictability of an equine's reaction to such things as sounds, sudden movement, tremors, vibrations,
unfamiliar objects, persons or other animals and hazards such as subsurface objects;
(c) the potential for other participants to behave in a negligent manner that may contribute to injury to themselves or
others, including failing to act within their abilities to maintain control over an equine.
_______2. I freely accept and fully assume all responsibility for all "Risks" and possibilities of personal injury, death, property damage
or loss resulting from my participation in "Equine Activities".
_______3. I agree that although the "Host" has taken steps to reduce the "Risks" and increase the safety of the "Equine Activities", it
is not possible for the "Host" to make the "Equine Activities" completely safe. I accept these "Risks" and agree to the
terms of this waiver even if the "Host" is found to be negligent or in breach of any duty of care or any obligation to me in
my participation in "Equine Activities".
_______4. In addition to consideration given to the "Host" for my participation in "Equine Activities", I and my heirs, next of kin,
executors, administrators and assigns (collectively my "Legal Representatives") agree:
(a) to waive all claims that I have or may have in the future against the "Host";
(b) to release and forever discharge the "Host" from all liability for any personal injury, death, property damage, or loss
resulting from my participation in the equine activity due to any cause, including but not limited to negligence (failure
to use such care as a reasonably prudent and careful person would use under similar circumstances), breach of any
duty imposed by law, breach of contract or mistake or error in judgment of the "Host"; and
(c) to be liable for and to hold harmless and indemnify the "Host" from all actions, proceedings, claims, damages, costs
demands, including court costs and costs on a solicitor and own client basis, and liabilities of whatsoever nature or
kind arising out of or in any way connected with my participation in "Equine Activities".
_______5. I agree that this waiver and all terms contained herein are governed exclusively and in all respects by the laws of the
Province or Territory of Canada in which the "Equine Activities" are provided by the "Host". I hereby irrevocably submit to
the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that Province or Territory of Canada and I agree that no other court can exercise
jurisdiction over the terms and claims referred to herein. Any litigation to enforce this waiver will be instituted in the
Province or Territory of Canada in which the "Equine Activities" are provided by the "Host".
_______6. I confirm that I have had sufficient time to read and understand this waiver in its entirety. I understand that this agreement
represents the entire agreement between myself and the "Host", and it is binding on myself and my "Legal
Representatives".
_______7. I confirm that I have reached the age of majority in the province in which I am participating in "Equine Activities".
