Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada
The following excerpt is from Newfoundland and Labrador Association of Public and Private Employees v. Rigolet Inuit Community Government, 2019 NLSC 232 (CanLII):
Every element of the Arbitrator’s thought process need not independently pass the test for reasonableness. Rather, the question is whether the reasons taken as a whole are tenable as support for the decision (Ryan v. Law Society (New Brunswick), 2003 SCC 20, at para.56).
