Oral Reasons for Judgment

Kristjanson J. (Orally)

1The applicant has abandoned this application for judicial review. The respondent is entitled to costs. Substantial indemnity costs are not appropriate in this case.

2The amount sought by the respondent of $35,000 on a substantial indemnity basis, and approximately $25,000 on a partial indemnity basis, is far in excess of what is normally awarded by this court in these kinds of cases.

3We award costs payable by the applicant to the respondent in the amount of $10,000 all inclusive
