Is Devonshire an intervenor in the litigation?

Devonshire has played a significant part in the proceedings to this point in time. It has an additional or, perhaps, a different perspective to bring to the litigation than that of the City. My decision to allow Devonshire to be added as a party is unique to these facts and should not be interpreted as a wholesale acceptance that a developer will or should always be added. In this situation, I am satisfied that Devonshire has a sufficiently varied perspective to merit its status as an intervenor. As was the case in Gendis, Devonshire may have “different nuances in argument” that may be important to be heard (para. 37). The case of Hulet v. Guelph (City) (2006), 25 M.P.L.R. (4th) 5 was also of assistance in reaching this conclusion.
