The employer brought a motion for the production of the complainant's medical documents, including clinical notes from her general practitioner, her psychiatrist's complete file, and decoded OHIP forms.

The complainant, who alleged wrongful dismissal after being terminated for attending school while on short-term sick leave, opposed the motion.

The Board granted the motion in part, ordering the production of the psychiatrist's notes and records, as the complainant had put her mental health at issue by claiming her school attendance was part of a recommended treatment plan.

However, the Board denied the request for the general practitioner's records and OHIP forms, finding them overly broad and unnecessary at this stage.

The appellant appealed a trial judgment granting specific performance of a share purchase agreement.

The appellant argued the letter agreement lacked certainty regarding the mortgage amount, interest payments, and reporting requirements, amounting only to an agreement to agree.

The Court of Appeal upheld the trial judge's findings that the agreement's terms were clear and capable of enforcement when read in the context of the surrounding factual matrix.

The appeal was dismissed.

The applicant sought judicial review of a decision by the Ontario Highway Transport Board, which found that the respondent transport company was operating legally within the terms of its extra-provincial operating licence.

The Divisional Court dismissed the application, holding that the Board's decision was protected by a privative clause and was not patently unreasonable, nor was there any breach of natural justice or jurisdictional error.
