Judicial review of Orders in Council authorizing transit land expropriation dismissed as reasonable and intra vires.
The applicant sought judicial review to quash two Orders in Council (OICs) related to the expropriation of its lands for a transit-oriented community project.
The first OIC designated the lands as transit-oriented community land, removing the right to a hearing of necessity, while the second authorized the expropriation.
The Divisional Court dismissed the application, applying the Auer framework to find that both OICs were reasonably within the scope of authority delegated by the enabling legislation.
The court rejected arguments that the OICs were arbitrary, discriminatory, unnecessary, or made in bad faith.
Nurse suspended for two months after admitting to submitting false claims to employer's benefit plan.
The Member, a Registered Practical Nurse, admitted to committing professional misconduct by submitting false claims for prescription glasses and massage therapy to her employer's group benefit plan.
The Member altered receipts to claim for greater amounts or for services not received, resulting in an overpayment of $1,080, which she later reimbursed.
The Discipline Committee accepted an Agreed Statement of Facts and found the Member committed professional misconduct.
Accepting a Joint Submission on Order, the Committee ordered a reprimand, a two-month suspension of the Member's certificate of registration, and terms including meetings with a regulatory expert and employer notification.
