REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT
(Delivered from the Bench at Ottawa, Ontario, on March 7, 2006)
[1] In our view, it was open to Tremblay-Lamer J. to conclude that the Reasons given by the Human Rights Tribunal for refusing to refer the matter for inquiry did not meet the standard of reasonableness.
[2] Her decision to refer the matter for reconsideration will accordingly stand.
[3] The appeal is therefore dismissed with one set of costs. A copy of these Reasons will be filed in A-174-05 and A-175-05, and will stand as Reasons for Judgment in those files.
