What authority does a court have to hear debate over a adjudicator’s findings?
Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Director of Labour Standards v Acanac Inc, 2013 SKQB 21 (CanLII):
In sum, the respondents’ counsel asserts that I have very narrow authority to hear debate over the adjudicator’s findings. Both parties invoke the reasoning in Dunsmuir v. New Brunswick, 2008 SCC 9, [2008] 1 S.C.R. 190, as being a guide for the court to come to the correct conclusion with respect to the standard of review.
