The applicant, a truck driver, sought statutory accident benefits after allegedly falling from his truck and suffering a stroke.
The respondent denied benefits, arguing the incident did not meet the definition of an 'accident' under s. 3(1) of the Schedule.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to establish on a balance of probabilities that he sustained impairments from the fall, or that the stroke would not have occurred 'but for' the use or operation of the vehicle.
The Tribunal also dismissed the applicant's procedural objections regarding hearsay evidence and late production, as well as his request for estoppel.
The application was dismissed.
