Proof in police discipline matters higher than balance of probabilities

How very odd. There are supposedly only two standards. Balance of probabilities and beyond reasonable doubt. But not for police it seems. 

Jacobs v. Ottawa (Police Service), 2016 ONCA 345:

12]        Counsel for the respondents fairly concede that if the Supreme Court determined the issue of the standard of proof under the PSA in Penner, the appeal must be allowed and it is unnecessary to engage in a statutory interpretation of s. 84(1). In my view, we are bound by the Supreme Court's statement in Penner that the standard of proof in PSA hearings is a higher standard of clear and convincing evidence and not a balance of probabilities.
