The appellant appealed an arbitration order dismissing his claim for accident benefits and ordering him to pay expenses and an assessment.
The appellant's non-lawyer representative advanced extensive arguments alleging institutional and personal bias against the Financial Services Commission of Ontario and its arbitrators.
The Director of Arbitrations dismissed the appeal, finding no error of law and concluding that the bias allegations were completely without foundation.
The Director ordered the appellant to pay $1,500 in appeal expenses and a $500 assessment, finding the appeal was frivolous, vexatious, and an abuse of process.
