Summary:

The Board's decision [to not give benefit of doubt to claimant] is unassailable. Ss. 54(1) imposes on him the burden of proof in all cases, on a balance of probabilities. If, after hearing evidence, the Board only had a doubt as to his eligibility, burden clearly not discharged.

Ss. 40(1) imposes on a claimant the burden of establishing his eligibility in all cases on a balance of probabilities. If, after hearing evidence from both sides, the Board only had a doubt as to claimant's eligibility, he clearly had not discharged the burden upon him.
