The moving party, an outdoor recreational alliance, sought leave to appeal its convictions under the Public Lands Act and the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act arising from a public protest where members cleared a decommissioned road on Crown land.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the motion for leave to appeal, finding that the proposed grounds of appeal did not raise questions of law alone, nor were they essential in the public interest or for the due administration of justice as required by section 131 of the Provincial Offences Act.
