REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE
COURT
(Delivered
from the Bench at Vancouver, British Columbia, on September 19, 2007)
DESJARDINS
J.A.
[1]
It
being apparent from the record that, at the time of the hearing, the Applicant
was regularly engaged in a substantially gainful occupation as a dishwasher,
the Board’s conclusion that the Applicant was not disabled within the meaning
of the Canada Pension Plan (R.S., c. C-8 subsection 4(2)(2)) cannot be
faulted.
[2]
However,
it would have been preferable for the Board to give more elaborate reasons in
the circumstances.
[3]
This
application for judicial review will be dismissed without costs.
