New Brunswick, Canada
The following excerpt is from R v Grosseth, 2019 NBQB 137 (CanLII):
That’s the end of my quote with respect to R v. R.E.M. and the authority for how to judge the sufficiency of reasons. On this appeal I am satisfied that the trial judge, on the record as a whole, dealt with the impugned essential elements of the offence, whether they are viewed as volitional conduct (that is, the actus rea) or as intent (that is, the mens rea) and that she did so in the proper analytical context (that is, W.D.)
