Evidence may only be given of the existence or non-existence of facts in issue and of other facts declared to be relevant under the Act. Any fact that is logically relevant to the dispute is automatically admissible, regardless of whether it is declared relevant in the Act. The court must admit all logically relevant evidence unless the opposing party proves it violates a common law rule of exclusion. Admissibility is governed solely by the common law, whereas the Evidence Act only defines the concept of logical relevance.
