The judgment of the Court was delivered orally by

THE CHIEF JUSTICE—We do not need to hear you, Mrs. Mclsaac. We are all of the opinion that the Alberta Appellate Division was correct in its conclusion that the relevant Alberta legislation required notice to the accused to effect a suspension of his licence upon his conviction of a charge of impaired driving under s. 236 of the Criminal Code. The appeal is, accordingly, dismissed.
Judgment accordingly.
Solicitor for the appellant: The Attorney General for Alberta.
Solicitors for the respondent: Hennessy & Sillito, High Prairie.
