REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE
COURT
(Delivered
from the Bench at Halifax, Nova Scotia, on May 30,
2007)
NADON J.A.
[1]
This
is an application for judicial review of a decision of the Pension Appeals
Board (the Board) dated October 5, 2006 which concluded that the medical
evidence before it did not show that the applicant’s disability was severe and
prolonged within the meaning given to those terms by the Canada Pension Plan.
[2]
We
have not been persuaded that in so concluding the Board erred either in fact or
in law. We would add that, in our view, it was clearly open to the Board,
considering the evidence before it, to conclude as it did.
[3]
We
are therefore all agreed that the application should be dismissed but, in the
circumstances, without costs.
