Therefore, among other things dealt with in the motion, I declined to deal with the issue recusal.   [...]  I had not been provided a copy of it prior to the hearing although counsel for the applicant in fairness indicates that it was filed.   [...]  I believe, just checking my notes to see if there is anything else that I wanted to deal with.

Pascal v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - 2020 FC 751 - 2020-07-09

On the one hand, Parliament has established a fairly low evidentiary threshold in this area and has given the decision maker a good deal of freedom to receive any evidence it considers reliable, whether or not it would normally be admissible in a court.   [...]  In my view, this is not a fair characterization of the ID’s decision.   [...]  However, he raised no argument regarding the fairness of admitting the book into evidence.

Airbus Helicopters S.A.S. v. Bell Helicopter Textron Canada Limitée - 2019 FCA 29 - 2019-02-11

[36] On a fair reading of these two paragraphs, especially when they are read in the context of the judge’s reasons as a whole, I find it hard to consider that he felt “limited” or “bound” by a so-called $2,000,000 ceiling.   [...]  I will now deal with each of these arguments in turn. (1) Blameworthiness of the Conduct   [...]  I will deal with each of these alleged errors in turn. (3) Potential and Actual Harm

Cameco Corporation v. "MCP Altona" (The Ship) - 2013 FC 1263 - 2013-12-19

[21] In response, the Affidavit of David F. McEwen sworn September 26, 2013 [the second McEwen Affidavit] states that both counsels’ offices deal with documents in a different manner.   [...]  The Court did not deal with the disbursements. He further submits that:   [...]  Considering that the period covered by the Bill of Costs overlaps the period while counsel were also dealing with the assessment of the Marshall’s costs, Mr. McEwen indicates that he caused, in an effort to properly and fairly account for all disbursements, for certain disbursements to be split 50/50 between the two issues.

World Fuel Services Corporation v. The Ship "Nordems" - 2011 FCA 73 - 2011-02-25

In this case we are dealing with the reverse situation, but the same principle holds true.   [...]  (Montreal: Éditions Yvon Blais, 1998) deals with this issue at chapter XVI of his learned work.   [...]  Thus, a fair examination of the evidence does not disclose any real or substantial connection to the United States.

Cheung v. The Queen - 2005 TCC 83 - 2005-01-31

Counsel referred the appellant to a web listing for the firm of Y.K. Cheung & Co. and to the preferred areas of practice listed thereon which included performing accounting work in the hospitality industry and for businesses involved in retail, preparing tax returns and dealing with non-resident taxation issues.   [...]  [16] First, I will deal with the income tax appeals for the 1999, 2000 and 2001 income tax years.   [...]  In the light of these documents, the appellant cannot now be heard to say that the Minister determined the amount of the tax without giving him a fair opportunity of meeting the case against him.

Hewage v. Canada (Prime Minister) - 2024 FC 901 - 2024-06-12

[13] Further, striking a hopeless judicial review application is a valuable measure to ensure effective and fair litigation because it unclutters proceedings and permits the reallocation of scarce judicial resources to matters that, having some chance of success, can progress expeditiously to a hearing: Uyghur Rights   [...]  [15] I deal with each of these objections to the Application in turn.

Ruiz Rodriguez v. Canada (Attorney General) - 2022 FC 1617 - 2022-11-25

disasters, civil disruptions, a serious illness or accident, or distress (Connolly at para 32 – admittedly that was in the context of subsection 204.1(4), which deals with excess Registered Retirement Savings Plan contributions, although these provisions are similar to the provisions relating to TFSA contributions).   [...]  In this case, Mr. Rodriguez has not advanced any reviewable error, but rather seems to challenge the perceived fairness of the decision given the amount of tax that he is being asked to pay in comparison with the few hundred dollars of interest that he earned on the funds while they were in his account.

Yendamuri v. Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Council - 2022 FC 888 - 2022-06-14

(b) section 368(1)(a): knowing or believing that a document is forged and using, dealing with or acting on it as if it were genuine.   [...]  Although the Applicant raised an argument about whether he was denied procedural fairness because of the inadequacy of the reasons, this is to be considered as part of the reasonableness analysis.

Fluid Energy Group Ltd. v. Exaltexx Inc. - 2020 FC 299 - 2020-02-25

Although Rule 407 deals with costs on an assessment, it has been described by the Federal Court of Appeal as setting out a general principle applicable to costs awards: Wihksne v Canada (Attorney General), 2002 FCA 356 at paras 11-12.   [...]   of how [Exaltexx] chose to employ legal resources to achieve its end of that objective.” I also note that Fluid’s calculation of 12-hour days at $500/hr makes assumptions about the number of counsel involved and hourly rates that may not be fair and that are again less persuasive in the absence of comparison from Fluid.

Bhuiyan v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - 2019 FC 1518 - 2019-11-27

Ms. Bhuiyan instructed the manager to tell the individuals to deal with her husband, who would be returning to take care of the business.   [...]  A fair reading of her testimony before the panel reveals that she gave a credible explanation of her use of the word to describe her involvement in the complaints to the police regarding her daughter’s harassment and attack.

Nagel v. The Queen - 2018 TCC 32 - 2018-02-15

169(1) Appel — Lorsqu’un contribuable a signifié un avis d’opposition à une cotisation, prévu à l’article 165, il peut interjeter appel auprès de la Cour canadienne de l’impôt pour faire annuler ou modifier la cotisation :   [...]  The expression nil assessment does not appear anywhere in the Act.

Cowessess First Nation No. 73 v. Pelletier - 2017 FC 859 - 2017-09-19

c) Ratiopharm Inc. v. Wyeth and Wyeth Canada, 2007 FCA 361: the FCA reconsidered a judgment that failed to address costs on a related application, writing that it had “no difficulty concluding that our failure to deal with the issue of costs on the [related] application is clearly an oversight on our part” and amending its   [...]  This Court found it fair and just for the Band to make a contribution to the applicant’s costs, even though the Band was the successful party.
