"A doctor that sexually assaults his patients? No problem, pay a thousand dollar fine, get on with your day. A doctor who dedicates his life savings and four years of his life to trying to save people from fraud in the medical realm? No, you can't keep your license."
Dr. Mark Trozzi

"The purpose of administrative law is to prevent the individual from being subjected to arbitrary and oppressive state conduct. So the purpose of administrative law is to protect the individual. But if you look at the train of decisions over the last 20 years in Ontario, in particular, you'll find that the courts have flipped the presumption.
And now the presumption in administrative law is in favor of the state, not the individual."
