REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT
(Delivered from the Bench at Toronto, Ontario, on March 1, 2004)
[1] Notwithstanding counsel's argument, we have not been persuaded that the Umpire's decision was unreasonable when she found that the findings of fact made by the Board of Referees were reasonably open to it and dismissed the appeal on that basis.
[2] This application for judicial review will be dismissed with costs as agreed of $8,500 inclusive of fees, disbursements and GST.
