This appeal considered judicial review of an arbitration award under Quebec's specialized health insurance collective bargaining scheme.
The majority held the arbitrator reasonably concluded the dispute was not arbitrable under the Framework Agreement and that only the federation had standing to submit this type of dispute.
Concurring reasons agreed in the result while treating jurisdiction and standing analysis differently on standard of review.
Dissenting reasons would have found jurisdiction and standing errors and would have dismissed the appeal.
The appeal was allowed and the arbitration award was restored.
