The applicant failed to demonstrate substantial loss that would be suffered if the stay was not granted, merely stating his financial limitations without evidence of irreparable harm.

The Tribunal emphasized that the business of the cooperative is for the benefit of its members and that the issues raised by the Claimant were in the interest of all members. Th…
