Willcock J.A. grants a stay of execution pending a leave application to the Supreme Court of Canada. The issue of conditional orders under s. 324.1 remains arguable.
The SCAJ erred by narrowing the statutory prohibition and by treating initiation of communications and officials' subjective views as dispositive; under a proper contextual interpretation of the Lobbying Act, communications by the respondent that secured an effective award or preservation of a financial benefit to CSEE fell within s.7(1)(a)(v) and thus breached the five-year prohibition in s.10.11(1)(b); accordingly the Court of Appeal allowed the Crown's appeal, set aside the SCAJ decision and reinstated the conviction and $5,000 fine on count #3.
