What is the standard of review question?
Nova Scotia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Yates v Nova Scotia Board of Examiners in Psychology, 2018 NSSC 43 (CanLII):
Any analysis of a “standard of review question” begins with Dunsmuir v. New Brunswick, 2008 SCC 9. Dunsmuir, supra, established that there are only two potential standards of review with which we need concern ourselves. One standard is “correctness”. The other is the more deferential standard of “reasonableness”.
