Discuss the restrictions on the power of government decision makers imposed by the power of judicial review.

Here students should show an understanding of the rule of law. That is, government officials can do only what they have been authorized to do by law. Students should discuss limitations on regulators' power in the form of the content of the statutes and regulations that create their position and authorize their conduct, as well as the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the division of powers under the Constitution Act, 1867. They should also deal with abuses in the way regulators exercise their power, as determined by the principles of due process and the rules of natural justice. The principal idea is that these government regulators cannot act arbitrarily but are under severe restrictions in what they can do and how they can do it.
