I agree that both R.S.C. Ord.13, r.10, and R.S.C., Ord.27, r.15, gives a discretionary power to the judge in chambers to set aside a default judgment. The discretion is in terms unconditional. The courts, 
however, have laid down for themselves rules to guide them in the normal exercise of their discretion. One is that, where the judgment was obtained regularly, there must be an affidavit of merits, meaning that the application must produce to the court evi
d
ence that he has a prima facie defence. It was suggested in argument that there is another rule, that the applicant must satisfy the court that there is a reasonable explanation why judgment was allowed to go by default, such as mistake, accident, fraud o
r
 the like. I do not think that any such rule exists, though obviously the reason, if any, to set it aside is one of the matters to which the court will have regard in excising its discretion. If there were a rigid rule that no one could have a default jud
g
ment set aside who knew at the time and intended that there should be a judgment signed, the two rules would be deprived of most of their efficacy. The principle obviously is that, unless and until the court has pronounced a judgment upon the merits or by
 consent, it is to have the power to revoke the expression of its coercive power where that has been obtained only by a failure to follow any of the rules of procedure.\rquote }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs27 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs27\cf1\insrsid16085259
