Bias - 'Bias is Jurisdictional'

. Teksavvy Solutions Inc. v. Bell Canada

In Teksavvy Solutions Inc. v. Bell Canada (Fed CA, 2024) the Federal Court of Appeal dismisses a CRTC rate-setting appeal.

Here, when faced with a bias argument, the court categorized the bias issue of one of 'jurisdiction':
[50] Teksavvy submits that the CRTC was impermissibly biased in this case. This sort of procedural ground can be raised in an appeal under subsection 64(1) [SS: of the Telecommunications Act] of the Act because it goes to "“jurisdiction”": Emerson, above.
