Causation has three tests:
- The "But For" test or (natural consequence test): The court must prove whether the consequences would have happened "But For" the actions of the accused.
- The reasonably foreseeable test: Was the result of an individual's actions of "Recklessness indifference to human life" able to be foreseen by a reasonable person as a possibility or consequence of their actions?
- The "Substantial and operating cause test: Was the act of the accused a substantial and operating cause of death?
These three tests are significantly defined in the case of Royall v. The Queen.
