     REASONS FOR ORDER

TREMBLAY-LAMER J.:

[1]      The panel found that the applicant was not credible because of the numerous implausibilities relating to essential elements of her claim. The minor errors identified could not have had an impact on the correctness of the panel's decision. The findings regarding lack of credibility could reasonably have been inferred from the evidence.

[2]      Accordingly, the application for judicial review is dismissed.
