The appellant appealed a motion judge's decision to stay proceedings pursuant to section 7 of the Arbitration Act.
The parties had previously signed a consent to attend mediation/arbitration.
After mediation failed, the appellant refused to proceed to arbitration and returned to court.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding no ambiguity in the term 'mediation/arbitration' and concluding that the motion judge did not err in finding a valid agreement to arbitrate.
