Is a breach of the rules of natural justice a ground to quash a decision of a consensual tribunal?

Alberta, Canada


The following excerpt is from Boucher v. Métis Nation of Alberta Association, 2009 ABCA 5 (CanLII):

It is argued that breach of the rules of natural justice would also be a ground to quash a decision of a private consensual tribunal: see Lakeside v. Hofer, supra. I do not have to decide whether that proposition of law is correct or not, because I see no such breach here.
