HRTO0 cases2012–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 30, 2014

Human rights application dismissed at preliminary stage for failing to identify specific acts of discrimination.

The applicant filed an application alleging that his ODSP case worker and manager discriminated against him based on disability and reprised against him contrary to the Human Rights Code.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss (NOID) because the application failed to identify specific acts of discrimination.

The applicant did not file submissions in response to the NOID.

The Tribunal dismissed the application, finding it plain and obvious that the claims related to general unfairness in the handling of his ODSP claim and fell outside the Tribunal's jurisdiction.

Northey v. MacKinnon, 2014 HRTO 1836

Jo-Anne Pickel

HRTO0 cases2012–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 19, 2014

Human rights complaint regarding special diet allowance dismissed as abandoned for failure to file materials.

The complainant alleged discrimination based on disability regarding the special diet allowance under Ontario's social assistance system.

The Tribunal previously directed the complainant to provide materials and submissions supporting his claims related to hypertension and hepatitis C, warning that failure to do so would result in dismissal for abandonment.

The complainant failed to file any materials or communicate with the Tribunal.

Consequently, the Tribunal dismissed the remaining claims as abandoned.

Addison v. Ontario (Community and Social Services), 2014 HRTO 1807

Request to amend human rights application to add reprisal allegations granted; interim cease and desist order denied.

The applicants, female soccer players participating in the FIFA Women's World Cup Canada 2015, filed a human rights application alleging sex discrimination regarding the requirement to play on artificial turf.

They subsequently sought to amend their application to include allegations of reprisal and requested an interim remedy ordering the respondents to cease and desist from threatening reprisals.

The Tribunal granted the request to amend the application, finding no prejudice to the respondents.

However, the Tribunal denied the request for an interim remedy, concluding that a cease and desist order was unnecessary because section 8 of the Human Rights Code already provides clear protection against reprisal.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 8, 2014

Hague Service Convention does not apply to service of Ontario Human Rights Tribunal applications.

The applicants filed a human rights application alleging sex discrimination by FIFA and the Canadian Soccer Association regarding the use of artificial turf for the 2015 Women's World Cup.

FIFA objected to the Tribunal's jurisdiction, arguing it had not been properly served under the Hague Service Convention.

The Tribunal held that Ontario law does not require compliance with the Hague Service Convention for administrative tribunal proceedings.

Since FIFA acknowledged receipt of the application materials, the Tribunal found that FIFA had received effective legal notice.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 8, 2014

Reconsideration of refusal to expedite proceedings denied as it is a procedural, not final, decision.

The applicants requested reconsideration of an interim decision that denied their request to expedite proceedings.

The Tribunal denied the request for reconsideration, holding that under Rule 26.1 of the Tribunal's Rules of Procedure, reconsideration is only available for final decisions.

A refusal to expedite proceedings is a procedural decision, not a final decision, and is therefore not subject to reconsideration.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 5, 2014

Respondent granted interim access to applicant's internal medical file to prepare human rights response.

In a human rights application alleging discrimination on the basis of disability, the respondent City requested an interim order granting it access to the applicant's personal health information maintained by its Compensation and Benefits Section before filing its Response.

The Tribunal granted the request, finding that the City could not meaningfully respond to the allegations without access to the medical file to explain its actions.

The Tribunal ordered access subject to strict privacy conditions, granted the City a 35-day extension to file its Response, and denied the City's request for further particulars regarding the systemic discrimination claim.

Campbell v. Thunder Bay (City), 2014 HRTO 1759

Jo-Anne Pickel

HRTO0 cases2012–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioNov 26, 2014

Human rights application partially dismissed against certain respondents due to adjudicative immunity and lack of specific allegations.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination and reprisal by the Social Benefits Tribunal and various individuals in the denial of her ODSP benefits.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss regarding certain respondents.

The Tribunal dismissed the application against one respondent due to adjudicative immunity, and against several others for failing to identify specific acts of discrimination.

The application against the remaining respondents was directed to a summary hearing.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioNov 26, 2014

Application for breach of settlement confidentiality dismissed due to lack of credible evidence.

The applicant alleged that the respondent breached the confidentiality provision of a settlement agreement resolving a prior human rights application.

The applicant claimed the respondent disclosed the settlement amount to her sister, who then told her spouse, who subsequently informed the applicant.

The Tribunal found the applicant's evidence relied entirely on hearsay from the spouse, whose testimony lacked credibility.

Preferring the respondent's evidence, the Tribunal concluded the applicant failed to prove the breach on a balance of probabilities and dismissed the application.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioNov 7, 2014

Request to expedite human rights application regarding artificial turf at Women's World Cup denied due to delay.

The applicants, women soccer players participating in the FIFA Women's World Cup Canada 2015, filed a human rights application alleging sex discrimination because they were required to play on artificial turf, unlike men's teams.

They requested an expedited proceeding to ensure grass fields could be installed before the tournament.

The Tribunal denied the request to expedite, finding that the applicants had delayed filing their application for over 18 months after the tournament schedule and venues were announced.

The Tribunal held that granting an expedited hearing in these circumstances would unfairly prejudice other applicants waiting for their cases to be heard.

HRTO0 cases2012–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 31, 2014

Tribunal removes five personal respondents but retains two whose alleged conduct is central to the claim.

The respondents requested the removal of several named personal respondents from a human rights application alleging discrimination in hiring based on citizenship, family status, age, and gender identity.

Applying the Persaud factors, the Tribunal removed five individuals against whom no specific allegations were made.

However, the Tribunal declined to remove two personal respondents whose alleged conduct regarding the termination of the applicant's son and the dismissal of the applicant's employment application formed a central issue in the family status discrimination claim.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 30, 2014

Human rights application dismissed as abuse of process due to valid full and final release.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination on the basis of disability and sexual orientation.

The respondent and the intervenor union argued the application should be dismissed as an abuse of process because the applicant had previously signed a Memorandum of Agreement containing a full and final release.

The applicant argued the release should be set aside because he signed it under extreme duress and lacked the mental capacity to understand its consequences.

The Tribunal found that the applicant understood he was signing a settlement agreement that severed his employment, and that the pressure he faced did not amount to legal duress.

The application was dismissed as an abuse of process.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 29, 2014

Human rights applications consolidated and deferred pending outcome of overlapping union grievance arbitration.

The applicant filed two human rights applications alleging discrimination and reprisal by the respondents, as well as six union grievances based on overlapping facts.

The respondents requested that the applications be consolidated and deferred pending the outcome of the grievance arbitration.

The Tribunal applied the Lattey factors and consolidated the applications to avoid a multiplicity of proceedings.

The Tribunal also deferred the consolidated applications, noting that grievance arbitrators have the jurisdiction and responsibility to enforce human rights obligations, and the union had already referred the grievances to arbitration.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 28, 2014

Request to defer human rights application denied as the related grievance was resolved.

The respondent requested that the Tribunal defer consideration of the human rights application pending the resolution of a grievance filed by the applicant.

The Tribunal had previously dismissed the respondent's request to dismiss the application under s. 45.1 of the Human Rights Code.

The respondent informed the Tribunal that the applicant's union considered the grievance to be resolved.

The Tribunal found it inappropriate to defer consideration of the application or to dismiss it under s. 45.1, and directed the parties to mediation.

The applicant requested an adjournment of the scheduled hearing due to her medical inability to participate, supported by notes from her family doctor and psychiatrist.

The respondent consented to the adjournment but opposed an indefinite delay.

The Tribunal granted the adjournment, noting its practice of doing so only in exceptional circumstances, and placed the application in abeyance for six months.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 21, 2014

Human rights application deferred pending conclusion of concurrent Ministry of Labour investigation.

The respondent requested that the Tribunal defer consideration of the human rights application pending the conclusion of a concurrent Ministry of Labour investigation under the Employment Standards Act.

The applicant had filed an ESA claim setting out the same facts and alleging reprisal.

The Tribunal granted the deferral request to avoid concurrent proceedings and the risk of inconsistent results, cancelling the scheduled hearing.

The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination in employment at the respondent's Darlington Nuclear facility.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioOct 14, 2014

Tribunal finds employer discriminated by terminating receptionist immediately after learning of her pregnancy; awards $15,000.

The applicant was hired as a receptionist on a one-year contract to cover a pregnancy leave.

After working three shifts, she informed a co-worker that she was pregnant and was terminated the following morning.

The respondent denied knowledge of the pregnancy and claimed the termination was due to the applicant questioning her duties and work hours.

The Tribunal found the respondent's explanation lacked credibility, given the timing of the termination and the absence of any prior performance concerns.

The Tribunal concluded that the applicant's pregnancy was a factor in her termination, violating section 5 of the Human Rights Code.

The respondent was ordered to pay $15,000 for injury to dignity, feelings, and self-respect, and to develop a comprehensive human rights policy.

The Tribunal wrote to the complainant's estate requesting confirmation of who was authorized to act on its behalf and its intentions regarding the complaint, warning that failure to respond could result in dismissal for abandonment.

Having received no response, the Tribunal dismissed the complaint as abandoned.

The Tribunal directed the complainant to provide materials supporting claims related to diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension, warning that failure to do so would result in dismissal for abandonment.

The complainant failed to file any materials or communicate with the Tribunal.

Consequently, the remaining claims were dismissed as abandoned.
