The proposed intervenor, representing Ontario school boards, brought a motion to intervene in an appeal concerning the allocation of tax savings between a utility's shareholders and ratepayers.
The utility opposed the intervention, arguing the proposed intervenor would merely duplicate the regulator's arguments.
The court granted the motion, finding that the proposed intervenor had a direct interest in the outcome and would provide a useful and distinct perspective on behalf of ratepayers without causing undue delay.
