What is the "just and convenient" test for determining whether the exceptional case test no longer applies?
Alberta, Canada
The following excerpt is from Envision Edmonton Opportunities Society v. Edmonton (City), 2011 ABQB 29 (CanLII):
The “just and convenient” test is generally seen as a more lenient test than the “exceptional case” test: Ratcliffe at para. 8 and Hynes v. Westfair Foods Ltd., 2008 BCSC 637 at para. 33. This suggests that if the exceptional case test no longer applies, this court should adopt the “just and convenient” test.
