The following excerpt is from Gregory v. British Columbia (Superintendent of Motor Vehicles), 2016 BCSC 1192 (CanLII):
It is clear from Dunsmuir v. New Brunswick, 2008 SCC 9, that the principle of curial deference requires the courts to defer to rulings of specialized tribunals except where the decision of the adjudicator “… falls within a range of possible, acceptable outcomes which are defensible in respect of the facts and law.” (at para. 47)
