The applicant sought judicial review of a decision by the Assistant Commissioner denying his grievance of an involuntary transfer from British Columbia to Nova Scotia.
The transfer occurred after the applicant's long-term supervision order was suspended based on an anonymous tip alleging he had threatened staff.
The applicant argued the tip was groundless and motivated by another inmate attempting to conceal a theft.
The Court found the decision unreasonable because it failed to meaningfully grapple with the applicant's assertion regarding the reliability of the anonymous tip, a central issue in his grievance.
The application was allowed and the matter remitted for reconsideration.
