HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioApr 25, 2013

Tribunal awards $39,868 to bartender for severe sexual harassment, discriminatory termination, and post-employment stalking.

The applicant, a bartender, alleged that the individual respondent, the owner and manager of the bar, subjected her to sexual harassment, poisoned her work environment, and terminated her employment as a reprisal for rejecting his sexual advances.

Following her termination, the respondent engaged in stalker-like behaviour, delivering misogynistic letters to her home and threatening physical violence.

The Tribunal found that the respondent's conduct constituted sexual harassment, discrimination based on sex, and reprisal under the Human Rights Code.

The Tribunal awarded the applicant $35,000 for injury to dignity, feelings, and self-respect, and $4,868.86 for lost income, and ordered the respondent to undergo human rights training.

HRTO0 cases2008–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioApr 4, 2013

Tribunal declines to dismiss human rights application on preliminary basis as timeliness issue requires further evidence.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination based on disability.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss because the application appeared to be filed more than one year after the last alleged incident.

The applicant provided written submissions clarifying that the last incident occurred later than initially stated on the form.

The Tribunal found it was not plain and obvious that the application was filed outside the statutory deadline and declined to dismiss the application on a preliminary basis.

The respondent requested to amend its Response after retaining legal counsel, and the self-represented applicant requested a four to six week extension of time to comply with disclosure obligations in order to seek legal advice.

The Tribunal granted the respondent's request to amend its Response, finding no prejudice to the applicant.

The Tribunal also granted an extension of time for disclosure to both parties, but limited the extension to approximately three weeks rather than the requested four to six weeks, and declined to adjourn the scheduled hearing dates.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 26, 2013

Tribunal sets aside interim decision deeming respondent to have accepted allegations after failure to respond.

The respondent filed a Request for an Order During Proceedings to set aside a previous Interim Decision that deemed it to have accepted all allegations in the human rights application due to a failure to respond.

The respondent explained that it assumed its accountant had filed the response.

Given the lack of prejudice to the applicant and the significant consequences for the respondent, the Tribunal exercised its discretion to set aside the previous decision and permitted the respondent to file a response.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 25, 2013

Request for reconsideration of housing discrimination decision dismissed as an attempt to reargue the case.

The respondent requested a reconsideration of a final decision that found he discriminated against the applicant by refusing to rent her a main floor apartment because of her disability.

The respondent argued under Rule 26.5(c) but merely repeated arguments made at the hearing and raised new issues regarding property damage and unpaid rent.

The Tribunal dismissed the request, noting that reconsideration is not an appeal or an opportunity to reargue the case, and that the new tenancy issues fall under the jurisdiction of the Landlord and Tenant Board.

HRTO0 cases2008–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 25, 2013

Request to reactivate deferred application denied due to ongoing WSIAT appeal; amendment to add termination granted.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging employment discrimination based on disability, which was deferred pending the conclusion of related WSIB proceedings.

The applicant requested to reactivate the application following a WSIB Appeals Resolution Officer decision, but the respondent opposed the request because it had appealed that decision to the WSIAT.

The applicant also requested to amend her application to include her subsequent termination of employment.

The Tribunal denied the request to reactivate due to the ongoing WSIAT appeal, but granted the request to amend the application on consent.

Rose v. Revera Long Term Care Inc., 2013 HRTO 502

Ken Bhattacharjee

HRTO0 cases2008–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 22, 2013

Human rights application deferred pending the conclusion of concurrent Law Society proceedings.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination and reprisal by the respondent, with whom she had a solicitor-client relationship.

The applicant also had an active complaint before the Law Society of Upper Canada (LSUC) based on similar facts.

The Tribunal considered whether to defer the application pending the conclusion of the LSUC proceeding.

Finding that the LSUC proceeding was at a more advanced stage and to avoid duplication of evidence and inconsistent findings, the Tribunal ordered the deferral of the application.

Ken Bhattacharjee

HRTO0 cases2008–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 12, 2013

Human rights application alleging disability-based harassment dismissed at summary hearing for no reasonable prospect of success.

The applicant, a Youth Service Manager with an ankle injury, alleged discrimination and harassment based on disability after being moved to a new work location within a secure custody facility.

The respondent requested a summary hearing to dismiss the application.

The Tribunal found that the applicant's disability-related needs were fully accommodated and that his allegations of harassment, based on 'side glances' from co-workers, were speculative.

The Tribunal dismissed the application as having no reasonable prospect of success.

Inglis v. Ontario (Children and Youth Services), 2013 HRTO 423

Human rights application alleging racial discrimination during police search dismissed for no reasonable prospect of success.

The applicant alleged that Toronto Police Service officers discriminated against him on the basis of race during the execution of a search warrant at his apartment.

He claimed the officers assaulted him and made discriminatory comments.

After the applicant presented his evidence at the hearing on the merits, the respondents moved to dismiss the application for having no reasonable prospect of success.

The Tribunal found that there was no reasonable prospect the applicant could prove a link between the alleged assault and his race, and found his testimony regarding the discriminatory comments to be not credible.

The application was dismissed.

Millien v. Toronto Police Services Board, 2013 HRTO 364

Jordana Joseph

Ken Bhattacharjee

HRTO0 cases2008–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioFeb 7, 2013

Human rights application dismissed for no reasonable prospect of success due to lack of medical evidence.

The applicant alleged discrimination based on disability when a doctor at a detention centre denied his request for specific prescription medications, resulting in withdrawal symptoms.

The respondent argued the decision was medical and the applicant lacked prescriptions.

After the applicant failed to comply with disclosure rules and confirmed he would not call his family doctor as a witness, the Tribunal held a summary hearing.

The Tribunal dismissed the application, finding no reasonable prospect of success because the applicant could not prove a failure to accommodate without medical evidence establishing his disability-related needs.

Ken Bhattacharjee

HRTO0 cases2008–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioFeb 6, 2013

Human rights application dismissed on preliminary basis for failing to allege reprisal under the Code.

The applicant filed an application alleging that the respondents subjected him to reprisals regarding his membership in a vocational association, specifically that his contract was terminated without notice and disciplinary action was pursued against him.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss because the application did not identify how the respondents subjected him to reprisals within the meaning of the Human Rights Code.

The applicant failed to explain how the respondents retaliated against him for claiming or enforcing his rights under the Code.

The Tribunal dismissed the application on a preliminary basis, finding it plain and obvious that the matter fell outside its jurisdiction.

The applicant filed an application alleging employment discrimination under the Human Rights Code.

The applicant failed to respond to the request within the required timeframe.

Consequently, the Tribunal deemed the application abandoned and dismissed it.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioFeb 5, 2013

Tribunal declines to dismiss human rights application on preliminary jurisdictional grounds, except for age discrimination.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination on the basis of race, colour, ancestry, place of origin, ethnic origin, and age, as well as reprisal, by the respondent police service.

The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss, suggesting the application appeared to be outside its jurisdiction.

After reviewing the applicant's written submissions, the Tribunal applied the 'plain and obvious' test and found that, except for the ground of age which was struck, it was not plain and obvious that the application was outside its jurisdiction.

The Tribunal ordered the application to be served on the respondent.

After the deadline passed without any response from either party, the Tribunal deemed the application abandoned, dismissed it, and cancelled the scheduled hearing.

HRTO0 cases2008–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioJan 29, 2013

Human rights application filed at 11:03 PM on deadline date accepted despite 5:00 PM rule.

The respondent requested that the Tribunal dismiss the human rights application on the basis that it was filed after the one-year statutory deadline.

The applicant filed her application electronically at 11:03 PM on the deadline date, but Tribunal rules deemed it received the next business day because it was filed after 5:00 PM.

The Tribunal found the six-hour delay was incurred in good faith and caused no substantial prejudice to the respondent.

Alternatively, the Tribunal exercised its discretion to waive the 5:00 PM rule, finding the application was filed within the statutory deadline.

The request to dismiss was denied.

The applicant was self-represented when she filed the original application and sought the amendment to clarify her intent after retaining counsel.

The respondents did not file a response to the request.

The Tribunal granted the request, finding that the amendment related only to the relief sought, did not involve additional allegations, and would not prejudice the respondents or significantly impact the course of the hearing.

Adjournment request denied; counsel's heavy workload is not an extraordinary circumstance.

The applicant requested an adjournment of the hearing six days before it was scheduled to begin, citing his counsel's heavy workload and lack of preparation.

The respondents opposed the request.

The Tribunal denied the adjournment, finding that a heavy workload does not constitute an extraordinary circumstance under its Practice Direction to justify a late adjournment request.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioDec 19, 2012

Tribunal orders partial production of documents relevant to software developer's work performance in discrimination claim.

The applicant, a software developer, alleged workplace discrimination based on race.

Prior to the hearing, the applicant requested the production of several documents, including source code repository data, co-workers' computer files, telephone histories, and head office emails.

The Tribunal applied the 'arguable relevance' test and ordered the respondent to produce charts from the source code repository, as they were relevant to the issue of work performance.

The requests for co-workers' computer files and telephone histories were denied for lack of relevance, and the request for emails was deemed moot as they had already been disclosed.

As the respondent did not dispute this, the deferral request was dismissed and the Tribunal directed that the application be processed in the normal course.
