3651541 Canada inc. v. Canada (Attorney General) - 2007 FC 1255 - 2007-11-30
Federal Court DecisionsHowever, on the basis of the Friedmanns’ health problems, the file was sent for consideration under the Fairness provisions of the Act. [...] In addition, the applicant takes issue with the Minister’s Delegate’s reliance on the fact that the Friedmanns had filed their personal income tax returns on time, and had retained a professional accountant to deal with their finances. [...] Mr. Friedmann’s ability to deal with other matters, including his ability to file other tax returns, and the possibility that another person could have prepared the returns in question, are relevant considerations in assessing whether it was his illness which prevented him from being able to file those returns.

Cottrell v. Chippewas of Rama Mnjikaning First Nation - 2007 FC 269 - 2007-03-08
Federal Court DecisionsThe Band invoked a provision in the lease dealing with physical and mental incapacity and which gave the Band the discretion to have the tenant placed in some other appropriate accommodation. [...] Sexton J.A.’s comment must be read in this context, most particularly that he was not dealing with a landlord-tenant situation on reserve lands. [...] [25] It is fair to say that the Band and at least some specific members do suffer some prejudice or at least inconvenience by virtue of this pending judicial review.

Chen v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration) - 2006 FC 389 - 2006-03-27
Federal Court Decisions[3] At the time that the proceedings were converted and consolidated by Justice Russell, the relief being sought by the applicants in the judicial review applications was fairly well defined and essentially declaratory in nature. [...] [5] Be that as it may, the Defendants have now moved for the particulars of the Plaintiffs' fairly voluminous pleading. [...] [8] When dealing with a motion involving the sufficiency of a pleading, the Court should bear in mind that the purpose of pleadings is to define the matters at issue between the parties.

Arias Garcia v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration) - 2006 FC 310 - 2006-03-09
Federal Court DecisionsConsequently, procedural fairness does not require that these documents be disclosed before arriving at a decision. [...] [35] Further, the PRRA officer took into account the objective evidence on Mexico dealing with legal guarantees for women regarding the custody of their children and the existing machinery when a woman is the victim of domestic violence. [...] What we are dealing with is essentially findings of fact, not findings of law.

Budget Steel Ltd. v. FMW Towing Ltd. - 2004 FC 1140 - 2004-08-17
Federal Court DecisionsWhile the motion is late, after considering all the circumstances, including those bearing on fairness, common sense and the interest of all concerned that justice be done, it is appropriate that the passing ship, Zim Shenzhen and Devonshire Corporation be added as defendants as set out in the proposed amended statement of [...] [11] Scannar Industries Inc. v. Canada (Minister of National Revenue) (1993), 69 F.T.R. 310 (T.D.), which is a case parallel in reasoning to Mantel (supra) is instructive, although it also deals with amendments between the parties, not with adding parties. [...] Ultimately it boils down to a consideration of simple fairness, common sense and the interest that the courts have that justice be done.

[...] (i) a provision of a statute, or of a regulation, by-law, direction or other instrument made or issued by the employer, dealing with terms and conditions of employment, or [...] Similarly, the proper recourse for challenging the decision of the PSSRB or the fairness of the hearing is a judicial review application, not an action.

Suntharalingam v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - 2015 FC 1025 - 2015-08-28
Federal Court Decisions[36] The respondent submits that the question of whether or not the officer should have convened an interview is a question of procedural fairness. [...] The Court must determine whether the process followed by the decision-maker achieved the level of fairness required in all of the circumstances (Khosa at paragraph 43). [...] [49] I wish to first deal with Issue 3. B. Issue 3 - Should the officer have convened an interview to address issues regarding the applicant’s credibility?

Millette v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - 2012 FC 542 - 2012-05-04
Federal Court DecisionsBreach of Procedural Fairness [16] The Applicant argues that the Officer breached her right to procedural fairness when he relied extensively on the DOS Report without giving her an opportunity to comment on it. [...] In this case, the new evidence was not of sufficient importance or probative value that the duty of fairness required the PCDO to deal with it expressly in her reasons. [...] [41] As the Decision makes clear, the Officer was aware that the Applicant had been in Canada for over 15 years, and he specifically deals with the years since her failed refugee claim.

Utano v. Canada (Public Safety) - 2024 FC 805 - 2024-05-28
Federal Court Decisions[18] Given that the Applicants’ motion for injunctive relief is premised on the underlying application for judicial review, which the Respondent seeks to strike, it makes procedural sense to deal first with the Respondent’s motion. [...] I will deal with each in turn. (a) Are the PSFs final decisions? [43] The Applicants submit that the PSFs were intentionally designed to give the impression of conclusiveness, despite their label as preliminary. [...] [61] I agree with the Respondent that, in following the Federal Court of Appeal’s authoritative direction in C.B. Powell, allegations of procedural fairness do not amount to exceptional circumstances: C.B. Powell at para 33.

Adams v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - 2007 FC 529 - 2007-05-17
Federal Court Decisions[22] The final argument advanced on behalf of Ms. Adams is that the Board failed to examine the effectiveness of the available mechanisms for dealing with spousal abuse in St. Vincent and in Trinidad. [...] The proposed question would also not be determinative inasmuch as it deals with an issue that was not raised in the Applicant’s Application for Leave and Judicial Review or Application Record. [...] The Applicant’s proposed question is also not of general importance, because it deals with issues of well established law – namely, whether self-represented claimants are owed a greater duty of fairness in the assessment of their claims, or whether the onus on them to make out their claims is lessened by virtue of the fact

Federal Court Decisions(f) that offenders be provided with relevant information, reasons for decisions and access to the review of decisions in order to ensure a fair and understandable conditional release process. [...] [14] I stop here to note that, in the course of its duties, the NPB must analyze and assess a great deal of information dealing mainly with human and social facts. [...] [17] In the end, what the NPB concluded from this situation was that the applicant used drugs to deal with his financial difficulties.

Ganji v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration) - 1997-08-29
Federal Court DecisionsWe will be dealing with the documents that was [sic] used to travel. We need to also deal with the destruction of the document which the claimant said that she destroyed on the airplane. [...] He put no objections on the record to the process that was unfolding and that was obviously causing the principal applicant, and likely Sara, a good deal of unrest. [...] In the absence of any evidence that the CRDD endeavoured to provide such an opportunity, I conclude that the CRDD breached its duty to the applicants to provide them with a fair hearing and in so doing committed a reviewable error.

Janssen Inc. v. Teva Canada Limited - 2015 FC 184 - 2015-02-16
Federal Court DecisionsFurthermore, references dealing with other compounds “that are not related” to the subject compound are “not particularly useful either”. [...] The degradation occurred fairly rapidly and most likely too rapidly for a liquid formulation to be possible. [...] The references dealing with lyophilization would be unhelpful because the person of skill already understood that technique to be one option among others.

Van Vlymen v. Canada (Solicitor General) - 2004 FC 1054 - 2004-08-03
Federal Court DecisionsThe duty to act fairly is the minimal requirement for procedural fairness and as such amounts to a violation of s. 7 of the Charter in that the Applicant's liberty and the security of his person were adversely affected in a manner that was not in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice. [...] It was only because of the persistence of the Applicant and others on his behalf that the authorities were forced to keep dealing with this matter. [...] The Applicant was dealt with fairly and in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice.

Merck & Co. Inc. v. Apotex Inc. - 2006 FC 524 - 2006-04-26
Federal Court Decisions[162] In this case, the evidence shows that there has been a use of lisinopril that should be considered in the circumstance of “fair dealing”. [...] [163] As to this research and development material, I find that it clearly falls within the “fair dealing” exemption provided by the Supreme Court of Canada in Micro Chemicals. [...] [170] I have found that section 55.2(l) of the Patent Act and the common law as to “fair dealing” afford exemptions as to certain Apotex activity that would otherwise infringe the claims at issue.
