The following excerpt is from Adil v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration), 2010 FC 987 (CanLII):

A standard of correctness is the appropriate standard for the review of issues involving procedural fairness and natural justice. See Sketchley v. Canada (Attorney General), 2005 FCA 404, at paragraph 46, and Dunsmuir, above, at paragraphs 126 and 129. As such, correctness is the appropriate standard when considering whether the Officer breached procedural fairness by: a) not providing proper language interpretation; and b) depriving the Applicant of the opportunity to respond.
