The producer of the statement/promise will be estopped or prevented from denying the truth of the original statement or claiming that he or she was not bound by the promise despite the fact that consideration has not flowed.

In 2008, let us take an example, the Ontario Superior Court upheld an employee’s claim for a promised wage increase on a number of grounds including promissory estoppel.
