The Owls Head tug-of-war is headed to the province’s highest court.
Wildlife biologist Bob Bancroft and the Eastern Shore Forest Watch Association, a local environmental group, hope to break new environmental law ground in an appeal of the decision by Nova Scotia Supreme Court justice Christa Brothers in the Owls Head saga.
… Brothers wrote in her decision that “the fundamental defect” in Simpson and Bancroft’s position is “that there is no recognized common law duty of procedural fairness owed by the Crown to the public at large.”
