Lin v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - 2014 FC 746 - 2014-07-28
Federal Court DecisionsChina has implemented an administrative process to deal with civil disorder which strongly suggests that the authorities are not interested in incarcerating individuals involved in this type of activity. [...] [32] Here, the RPD found that the Applicant can expect fair treatment from the Chinese justice system yet refers to no evidence in support of this other than the existence of legislation. [...] While China has a trial process, he fears he will not get a fair trial as the county government does not follow the law and that he will be incarcerated indefinitely.

Malcolm v. Canada (Fisheries and Oceans) - 2014 FCA 130 - 2014-05-20
Federal Court of Appeal Decisions[16] Moreover, there has been little progress achieved with respect to the second policy objective of the 2003 Framework dealing with the development of a mechanism acceptable to both sectors so as to allow for adjustments to the 12% ceiling through acquisition of additional halibut quotas from the commercial sector. [...] The application of these doctrines is akin or analogous to a failure to observe a principle of natural justice, procedural fairness or another procedure that the Minister was required by law to observe, and consequently the Federal Court Judge properly applied a standard of correctness to these matters: Canada (Citizenship [...] [48] The doctrine of legitimate expectations is an extension of the rules of natural justice and procedural fairness.

Shah v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - 2011 FC 1269 - 2011-11-07
Federal Court Decisions[34] The adequacy of reasons is a question of procedural fairness, which is reviewable on the standard of correctness: Siddiqui v Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration), 2008 FC 989, 74 Imm LR (3d) 181 at para 17 [Siddiqui]. [...] She argues that she is left in the position of not knowing why her application was refused and that this amounts to a violation of her right to procedural fairness. [...] It is a credible and well regarded agency as evidenced by the nature of the services it provides dealing with curtailing criminal conduct and helping heal victims of trauma arising from abuse.

[...] a) directement ou indirectement, faire une présentation erronée sur un fait important quant à un objet pertinent, ou une réticence sur ce fait, ce qui entraîne ou risque d’entraîner une erreur dans l’application de la présente loi; [...] There had been a breach of fairness, but the Court also set aside the decision because the officer could not refuse an application selected by Quebec unless there was a finding of inadmissibility.

Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) v. B236 - 2010 FC 1339 - 2010-12-31
Federal Court DecisionsI note that the alternative presented today is a fairly tenuous one and, as a result, that there is a ground for your continued detention in this regard. [...] I find that the existence of a bondsperson weighs a favour of the person concerned’s release and that in concert with fairly stringent terms and conditions would mitigate any risk associated with respect to flight in the days leading up to the person concerned’s admissibility hearing. [...] • [20] Before dealing with each element of the tri-partite test, it is important to note that there is a rapidly fast growing jurisprudence from the Court on stay of release from detention applications by the Minister arising out of the Sun Sea claimants where the identity of the individual is not in question but where the

Pechet v. Canada - 2009 FCA 341 - 2009-11-19
Federal Court of Appeal Decisions[2] The appeal deals with the rights and obligations under the Act of a non-resident who receives rental payments in Canada from a Canadian resident and how these rights and obligations interplay with those of the Canadian resident. [...] We want to tax non-residents fairly but without opening the door to tax evasion. [...] ... To resolve the conflict between administrative feasibility and fairness towards non-residents we permit various deviations from the general scheme for the taxation of passive income (ibid. at pages 1405 and 1406).

Arizaj v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - 2008 FC 774 - 2008-06-24
Federal Court Decisions[24] The Applicant further contends that the Board breached the principles of procedural fairness by making a negative finding on the authenticity of this medical report without giving the Applicant an opportunity to address the Board's concern regarding the authenticity of the document. [...] In support of this argument, the Applicant relies on Justice Shore's recent decision in Keqaj v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration), 2008 FC 388, wherein it was held that the Board breached its duty of procedural fairness by not raising its concerns to the Applicant thereby depriving the Applicant of an [...] The Applicant notes that the Applicant's counsel, in his submissions, specifically emphasized the importance of looking at the Guidelines and to look at how the Board should be dealing with someone who has had the Applicant's experiences.

Baron v. Canada (Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness) - 2008 FC 341 - 2008-03-13
Federal Court Decisions[4] In her further memorandum of argument, counsel for the respondent fairly referred to recent jurisprudence of this Court where factually similar applications were dismissed on the ground that they were moot. [...] Accordingly, I must deal with the application for judicial review otherwise, the order of Justice Beaudry would continue to be in force. [...] (i) It was then a fairly new development for motions for a stay of removal to be brought in respect of a refusal of an enforcement officer to defer removal.

Federal Court DecisionsIn addition, in Benitez v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration), [2007] 1 F.C.R. 107, 2006 FC 461, the Court found that the Board’s procedure did not require the right to an examination-in-chief, but rather required that the hearing be conducted fairly. [...] [35] The standard of review applicable to a breach of procedural fairness is correctness. [...] [42] Because of my finding on this issue, I need not deal with the other issues.

Osmose-Pentox Inc. v. Société Laurentide inc. - 2005 FC 1689 - 2005-12-14
Federal Court Decisions(b) the salutary effects of the confidentiality order, including the effects on the right of civil litigants to a fair trial, outweigh its deleterious effects, including the effects on the right to free expression, which in this context includes the public interest in open and accessible court proceedings. [...] [54] The applicant’s actions since the order of September 9, 2005 tend to confirm this since it did not file a motion pursuant to paragraph 397(1)(b) of the Rules for the Court to deal with a matter, namely the other remedy, which it might have accidentally overlooked on September 9. [...] At this point, fairness requires this Court to rule on the substantive issues raised by this constellation of facts, rather than keep the parties in the quagmire of discovery on remedial issues.

Chippewas of Kettle & Stony Point First Nation v. Shawkence - 2005 FC 823 - 2005-06-10
Federal Court Decisions3. Did the Adjudicator's refusal to admit certain evidence tendered at the reply stage of the proceedings deny the KSP First Nation a fair hearing, thereby breaching the rules of natural justice? [...] From the absence of material dealing with this issue, I can reasonably infer that the request was one for the admission of evidence and not for a determination of jurisdiction. [...] It may happen, however, that the rejection of relevant evidence has such an impact on the fairness of the proceeding, leading unavoidably to the conclusion that there has been a breach of natural justice.

MCI v. YONG JIE QU - 2001 FCA 399 - 2001-12-21
Federal Court of Appeal Decisions12. Every enactment is deemed remedial, and shall be given such fair, large and liberal construction and interpretation as best ensures the attainment of its objects. [...] It not only enables the individual to better participate in the democratic process by acting through a group, but it permits the individuals to act in concert to seek fairness in wage settlements and working conditions. [...] [54] In our view the visa officer also did not address in the refusal letter the status of the CSSA. The refusal letter deals primarily with the issue of espionage and subversion and refers to the gathering of information used for intelligence purposes, that relate to the Charter Rights of individuals in Canada.

[...] All my research checked out and I was able to determine that there were in fact people in Texas who corroborated the information I had received and I also determined that Mr. Hamel had in fact gone to the United States fairly often to buy horses, and even that he was in the United States at that time, that he was due to [...] In the instant case, I shall deal with the loss of business suffered by the Double J.

Pierre Juneau Rénovations Inc. v. The Queen - 2020 TCC 54 - 2020-07-23
Tax Court of Canada JudgmentsMs. Patrascu acted fairly and equitably toward the appellant. She allowed expenses to the appellant when she was satisfied that those expenses were valid, and disallowed expenses when she considered the supporting documentation to be inadequate. [...] I place a great deal of credibility on Ms. Patrascu's testimony and report. [...] This is particularly so when it comes to motor vehicle expenses, since the Act has a number of provisions which deal with different kinds of uses, what is necessary, what is not necessary . . . .
