It also ordered the government to pay some of Matches’ legal costs.
Nearly a year ago, the government issued a press release saying Matshes’ work was found to be “unreasonable” in 13 out of 14 cases reviewed.
Alberta Justice says it had agreed to quash the review heading into the hearing and it now plans to do another external review of Dr. Matshes’ work.
