APPEAL BOOK ENDORSEMENT

[1]

This is an appeal from a judge alone trial. The judge gave extensive and
    thorough reasons. In particular, she addressed in some detail the issues raised
    on appeal. This case came down to an assessment of credibility.

[2]

The appellant has pointed to no error in the trial judge's approach,
    including in her rejection of the suggestion of collusion by Crown witness.
    While the appellant objects to a Crown witness having created notes subsequent
    to the events, those notes were used for no improper purpose. The witness
    testified from her present recollection, the trial judge was alive to the issue
    and specifically addressed alleged inconsistencies.

[3]

The appellant also objects to the fact he was denied a legal aid
    certificate and had to proceed without counsel at trial. He has not
    demonstrated any unfairness in his trial.

[4]

The appeal from conviction is dismissed
