Original judgment source is linked above.

Judgment (2 paragraphs)

For the reasons stated by Mason J., which I have had the advantage of reading, I am of the opinion that grazing licences granted pursuant to s. 107 of the Crown Lands Act are not proprietary interests.

I would therefore dismiss the application both for the writ of mandamus and the writ of prohibition.
