Haug v. Canada (Attorney General)
  • Case Summary: Haug v. Canada (Attorney General) involves Daryle William Haug's judicial review application regarding a partially upheld inmate grievance. Haug, serving an indeterminate sentence for sexual assault, challenged his Correctional Officer II's (COII) work location and the handling of his Structured Casework Records (SCR) and telephone clearance requests.
  • Key Points:
    • Haug's grievance about the COII not working in his unit and not meeting with him before preparing SCRs was partially upheld, particularly regarding the requirement for COIIs to meet with inmates.
    • The court dismissed Haug's judicial review application, finding the decision reasonable and emphasizing that judicial review is not the appropriate forum for seeking enforcement of the grievance decision's corrective measures.
    • Costs of $500 were awarded against Haug, underscoring judicial review's separation from the administrative grievance process and the non-applicability of "negative consequences" arguments to judicial review cost awards.
