The appellant appealed a decision of the Ontario Energy Board approving the respondent's application to construct electricity transmission lines for a wind energy project and approving the forms of land agreements offered to affected landowners.
The appellant argued the independent legal advice clauses in the agreements were misleading and the Board failed to provide adequate reasons.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal, finding that the approval of the form of agreement was a discretionary decision that did not raise a question of law or jurisdiction.
Furthermore, the Board's decision was reasonable and its reasons were adequate.
