The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination based on age, disability, and receipt of public assistance, as well as reprisal.
The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss the application against the City of Hamilton, ODSP – Barrie, Sherri Webb, and Lisa Gibbons, as the narrative failed to identify any specific acts of discrimination by them.
The applicant did not file submissions in response.
The Tribunal dismissed the application against these respondents, finding it plain and obvious that the claims fell outside its jurisdiction because they lacked any connection to a protected ground under the Human Rights Code.
The application against the remaining respondents was directed to proceed to a summary hearing.
