The following excerpt is from Bullock v. Canada (Attorney General), 2008 FC 1117 (CanLII):
Generally, decisions of the VRAB Appeal Panel have been reviewed on a standard of patent unreasonableness or reasonableness, depending on the nature of the question at issue. In light of Dunsmuir, the standard of patent unreasonableness has been collapsed and now falls under the broader reasonableness standard: Rioux v. Canada (Attorney General), 2008 FC 991.
