Yesterday, the Ontario Court of Appeal granted a stay pending appeal of a September 2008 order in which the Divisional Court held that investigators appointed under the Ontario Health Professions Procedural Code have the power to compel observation of surgery conducted by an investigated physician. (Summary here.) The Court of Appeal stay decision indicates the merits of the appeal will be argued on June 10th.
