Can a Minister or Body tender advice to the Lieutenant Governor on a petition of right?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Air Canada v. British Columbia (Attorney General), 1983 CanLII 300 (BC CA):
To summarize, the opinions of the two British Columbia jurists who touched on the question in Fulton v. Norton do not make it clear which minister or body is to tender the advice to the Lieutenant Governor on a petition of right, although they do agree generally that ministers other than the Attorney General can give this advice.
