Governor In Council
A Governor in Council appointment is one made by the Governor General, on the advice of the Queen’s Privy Council of Canada (i.e., the Cabinet). The appointments are made through an Order in Council and range from heads of agencies and chief executive officers of Crown corporations to members of quasi-judicial tribunals.
Quasi-Judicial Tribunal
The Commission of the CER is a quasi-judicial tribunal, meaning that it is an administrative tribunal with all the powers, rights, and privileges of a superior court of record with respect to matters within its jurisdiction. It is obliged to deal with applications and proceedings before it expeditiously and respecting the principles of procedural fairness and natural justice.
REGDOCS
REGDOCS is the collection of publically accessible documents that are filed onto the legal record for any CER hearings or other written regulatory proceedings.
