The appellant was convicted of sexually assaulting his young niece.
The complainant disclosed the assaults several years later, and her testimony was uncorroborated.
The trial judge convicted the appellant, and the majority of the Court of Appeal upheld the conviction, with one judge dissenting on the basis that the verdict was unreasonable.
The Supreme Court of Canada dismissed the appeal, holding that the trial judge was entitled to believe the uncorroborated evidence of the complainant and that the verdict was reasonable and supported by the evidence.
