The applicant sought an extension of time to apply for judicial review of the Ministry of Mines' decision to add two other First Nations to consultation lists for mining projects on its traditional territory.
The applicant opposed adding the other First Nations as parties to the proceeding.
The court held that the entitlement of the other First Nations to participate as parties must be resolved before hearing the motion for an extension of time, as their rights were directly implicated by the proposed application.
