Discretionary decisions may be set aside where the court misdirects itself or comes to a decision that is so clearly wrong that it amounts to an injustice: Penner v. Niagara (Regional Police Services Board), 2013 SCC 19, [2013] 2 S.C.R. 125, at para. 27; Khan v. Law Society of Ontario, 2020 ONCA 320, 446 D.L.R. (4th) 575, at para. 10, leave to appeal to S.C.C. refused, 39321 (January 28, 2021).
