The following excerpt is from Christie v. AG of B.C. et al, 2005 BCSC 122 (CanLII):
The respondents raise the issue of the petitioner’s standing to bring this petition. There are two grounds upon which the petitioner says he has standing. The first is that the petitioner is entitled to standing under the “exceptionally prejudiced” criteria set out in Smith v. Ontario (Attorney General), 1924 CanLII 3 (SCC), [1924] S.C.R. 331.
