What is the significant delay of two years between a decision dismissing an appeal and an application to reopen the appeal?

Canada (Federal), Canada

The following excerpt is from X (Re), 2019 CanLII 132636 (CA IRB):

The appellants therefore did not justify the significant delay of two years, from receiving the decision dismissing the appeal in January 2017 to the application to reopen in February 2019. It should be noted that Canada v. Hennely,[3] cited by the appellants, concerns an application for an extension of time, and not an application to reopen an appeal.
