REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

(Delivered from the Bench at Montréal, Quebec, on November 5, 2014).

BOIVIN J.A.

[1]               Despite the forceful argument of counsel for the applicant, we have not been persuaded that the Canada Agricultural Review Tribunal committed a reviewable error.

[2]               It was open to the Tribunal to conclude as it did, on the basis of the evidence on record. What we are being asked to do is to conduct a trial de novo and reach the opposite conclusion. This is not the role of this Court.

[3]               The application for judicial review will be dismissed.

Richard Boivin
