This appeal concerned a commercial lease renewal dispute where the appellant tenant challenged the application judge's findings regarding the true agreement to lease and whether the respondent landlord had negotiated the renewal rent in good faith.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, upholding the application judge's findings of fact, which were based on conflicting evidence and credibility assessments.
The court also declined to admit fresh evidence, finding it irrelevant or unlikely to affect the outcome, and reiterated the high standard of review for factual findings on appeal.
