Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Cudney v. St. Thomas Police Service, 2021 ONCPC 15 (CanLII):
In reviewing the Hearing Officer’s consideration of the remaining disposition factors, we are to bear in mind that our role is not to second-guess the Hearing Officer whose assessment of and weight given to the factors are entitled to deference. Also, none of the disposition factors are paramount over the others and they are intended to be “flexible, contextual and may evolve over time”: see Husseini v. York Regional Police Service, 2018 ONSC 283 (Div. Ct.).
