What is the standard of review of a decision by the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Canada?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Baxter v. Ontario (Superintendent of Financial Services), 2004 CanLII 45494 (ON SCDC):
The standard of review with respect to decisions of statutory tribunals range from patently unreasonable at one end of the spectrum to correctness at the other. In between the two ends, there are decisions which are entitled to some curial deference, but not the full deference to be accorded where the standard is patently unreasonable. (See Pezim v. British Columbia (Supt. Of Brokers), 1994 CanLII 103 (SCC), [1994] 114 D.L.R. (4th) 385, S.C.C.)
