With respect to the applicable standard of review concerning abuse, the general principles have recently been reviewed by this Court. The question of the object, spirit or purpose of the relevant legislation is subject to a correctness review and the question of whether there is an abuse on the particular facts is subject to review based on the palpable and overriding standard (Pomerleau v. Canada, 2018 FCA 129 (CanLII) at para. 56).
