REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

(Delivered from the Bench at Ottawa, Ontario

on February 6, 2002)

SHARLOW J.A.

[1]                 An order adding a party to a proceeding is discretionary. We are not persuaded that the Motions Judge, in ordering Nav Canada to be added as a party to these proceedings, erred in principle or misapprehended the facts. Therefore, there is no basis for interfering with his order.

"K. Sharlow"

J.A.
