HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 28, 2010

Adjournment request denied but application not dismissed as abandoned; hearing to proceed as scheduled.

The applicant failed to file required pre-hearing materials and did not initially confirm his intention to proceed with the hearing as directed by a prior interim decision.

The respondents requested the application be dismissed as abandoned.

The applicant subsequently contacted the Tribunal, confirming his intention to proceed but requesting an adjournment due to a family emergency and lack of legal representation.

The Tribunal denied the adjournment request, finding no extraordinary circumstances to justify a late adjournment, but declined to dismiss the application as abandoned since the applicant confirmed his intention to appear.

The hearing was ordered to proceed as scheduled.

Mehdy Abdollahnejad v. Toronto Police Services Board and Jason Gobeil, 2010 HRTO 1205

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 20, 2010

Applicant's requests for document production, reconsideration, and adjournment denied pending scheduled preliminary hearing.

The applicant filed multiple Requests for Orders seeking production of documents from the Ministry of the Attorney General and the Ontario Human Rights Commission, reconsideration of a prior interim decision, and an adjournment or striking of the respondents' request for dismissal due to alleged non-compliance with a production order.

The Tribunal denied the production requests as the documents were not arguably relevant to the preliminary issue of whether the application was barred by a civil action.

The request for reconsideration was denied because the prior decision was not final.

The requests to strike and adjourn were also denied, with the Tribunal directing that the issue of the respondents' compliance with the production order be addressed at the upcoming hearing.

Cook v. Ottawa Police Services Board, 2010 HRTO 1138

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 20, 2010

Tribunal denies request for police officer's personnel file and refuses to dismiss application against Board.

The applicant filed a human rights complaint alleging racial discrimination by a police officer.

In this interim decision, the Tribunal addressed the applicant's request for production of the officer's complete personnel file and the respondent Board's request to dismiss the application against it.

The Tribunal denied the production request as over-broad, citing previous jurisprudence.

The Tribunal also declined to dismiss the application against the Board, finding it was properly named in a representative capacity and could potentially be found liable for the officer's actions.

Finally, noting the applicant's failure to file required materials, the Tribunal ordered the applicant to confirm his intention to proceed with the scheduled hearing.

Abdollahnejad v. Toronto Police Services Board, 2010 HRTO 1137

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 19, 2010

Commission directed to clarify if school board remained a party to transitional human rights complaint.

The respondent school board requested the dismissal of a transitional human rights application on the basis that there was no continued complaint against it at the Commission as of June 30, 2008.

The Tribunal found the record unclear as to whether the school board remained a party to the underlying complaint after it was amended.

The Tribunal directed the Ontario Human Rights Commission to review its records and advise whether a continued complaint against the school board existed as of the transitional date.

J.H. v. Lambton Kent District School Board, 2010 HRTO 1130

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 18, 2010

Reconsideration of human rights complaint dismissal denied as applicant failed to establish grounds for review.

The applicant requested a reconsideration of a Tribunal decision that dismissed her human rights complaint regarding her unsuccessful application for a Garden Coordinator position.

The applicant argued the Tribunal was too narrowly focused and improperly excluded background information and an honorarium issue.

The Tribunal denied the request, finding no conflict with established jurisprudence or procedure, and noting that the applicant had previously clarified her complaint was solely about the Garden Coordinator position.

The Tribunal concluded there were no grounds to reconsider its finding that her application was rejected because it was submitted late, not due to discrimination.

YangYun Caroline Xia v. University of Toronto Students’ Administrative Council, 2010 HRTO 1093

Tribunal orders targeted equity training and requires complainant to disclose medical records if relying on psychological evidence.

In a remedy decision following a finding of racial discrimination regarding a school transfer, the Tribunal declined to order broad systemic remedies but ordered the school board to develop learning materials based on the case for its equity training.

The Tribunal also ruled that if the complainant wishes to rely on psychological evidence to support his claim for $80,000 in general damages, he must disclose his complete medical records to the respondent.

The Tribunal confirmed it lacks jurisdiction to award legal expenses.

Andrew Persaud v. Toronto District School Board, 2010 HRTO 1084

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 14, 2010

Request for reconsideration denied as the 9-1-1 recording was not new evidence and did not alter the outcome.

The applicant requested a reconsideration of a Tribunal decision that dismissed his human rights application under s. 45.1 of the Human Rights Code.

The applicant argued that a 9-1-1 recording, which he claimed was misinterpreted by the adjudicator and the police investigator, constituted grounds for reconsideration.

The Tribunal denied the request, finding that the recording was not new evidence as it was available at the original hearing, and that it did not materially alter the evidence or demonstrate that the prior police investigation and review lacked fairness or failed to recognize human rights principles.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 12, 2010

Requests to dismiss human rights complaints regarding special education accommodations for lack of jurisdiction and mootness denied.

The respondents requested the dismissal of human rights complaints on the grounds that the Special Education Tribunal (SET) has exclusive jurisdiction over the identification, placement, and accommodation of students with special needs, and that the complaints were moot because the students were no longer enrolled with the respondent school board.

The Tribunal dismissed both requests.

It found that because the parties had agreed on the formal placement, the SET's own jurisprudence indicated it lacked jurisdiction over the remaining disputes about programs and services, meaning the SET did not have exclusive jurisdiction here.

The Tribunal also found the complaints were not moot because there remained a live controversy about whether the students were properly accommodated while enrolled, for which remedies like damages and declarations could still be awarded.

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 11, 2010

Human rights applications dismissed under s. 45.1 as the substance was appropriately dealt with by an internal university tribunal.

The applicant, a university student with a disability, filed human rights complaints against the university and two student unions, alleging discrimination because her disability prevented her from taking enough credits for full-time status, thereby denying her certain benefits.

The university and one student union requested dismissal of the applications under s. 45.1 of the Human Rights Code and as an abuse of process, arguing the matter had already been dealt with by the university's internal Anti-Discrimination Tribunal.

The Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario found that the internal tribunal hearing constituted a 'proceeding' that appropriately dealt with the substance of the application against the university.

The Tribunal also dismissed the application against the student union as an abuse of process, noting the internal tribunal had recorded that complaint as resolved.

Nalini Rao v. McMaster University, 2010 HRTO 1051

Cathy Pike

55 cases2003–2016

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 11, 2010

Application dismissed; Tribunal lacks jurisdiction to review the Commission's decisions not to deal with complaints.

The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination by the Ontario Human Rights Commission and its personnel regarding their handling and dismissal of his previous human rights complaints.

The respondents requested that the application be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

The Tribunal held that it does not have jurisdiction to review the decisions of another adjudicative body, as the content, reasons, and result of a statutory decision-maker's decision do not constitute a 'service' under section 1 of the Human Rights Code.

The application was dismissed.

Makhi v. Ontario Human Rights Commission, 2010 HRTO 1047

Heather Crisp

29 cases2000–2015

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMay 7, 2010

Employer held liable for sexually poisoned work environment and inadequate investigation; $15,000 awarded.

The applicant alleged she experienced a sexually poisoned work environment, inadequate management response, and reprisal, including the termination of her employment.

The Tribunal found that the applicant was subjected to a sexually poisoned work environment and that the employer's manager and Human Resources department failed to reasonably and adequately respond to her complaints.

The Tribunal also found that the applicant experienced reprisal in the workplace from co-workers, but concluded that her termination was not a reprisal, as it resulted from her failure to provide medical documentation for her continued absence.

The applicant was awarded lost income and $15,000 for injury to dignity, feelings, and self-respect.

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioApr 30, 2010

Human rights application dismissed after the applicant failed to appear at the scheduled hearing.

The applicant failed to appear at the scheduled Case Resolution Conference.

The applicant's representative later contacted the Tribunal, explaining her own absence due to a medical issue and stating that the applicant was out of the country and had not contacted her.

The Tribunal found this explanation inadequate for the applicant's failure to appear and provide evidence in support of his allegations.

The application was dismissed.

Paris Odede v. Sanmina-SCI Systems Corporation, 2010 HRTO 940

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioApr 28, 2010

Tribunal denies applicant's procedural requests and stays summonses ahead of preliminary hearing on dismissal.

The applicant filed various procedural requests ahead of a preliminary hearing regarding the respondents' request to dismiss the application due to a civil action.

The Tribunal denied requests to intervene by several organizations and individuals for failure to serve the parties and establish a sufficient interest.

The Tribunal also denied the applicant's requests for a Tribunal Ordered Inquiry, production of Commission files, and to add a party.

The Tribunal stayed summonses to witness issued by the applicant, finding the witnesses were not required for the preliminary hearing, but ordered the respondents to produce documents relevant to their request to dismiss.

Cook v. Ottawa Police Services Board, 2010 HRTO 923

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioApr 22, 2010

Applicant ordered to produce relevant medical and CPP records; respondents' adjournment request denied.

The respondents in a human rights application alleging failure to accommodate the applicant's Parkinson's disease requested the production of medical records and Canada Pension Plan disability documents.

The Tribunal ordered the applicant to produce clinical notes from three specific doctors for the period following his diagnosis, as well as his CPP file, finding them arguably relevant.

The Tribunal denied the respondents' request for an adjournment of the upcoming hearing, noting that the hearing could commence with the applicant's evidence and any need for an independent medical assessment could be addressed at that time.

Iley v. Sault Ste. Marie Community Information and Career Centre, 2010 HRTO 880

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioApr 16, 2010

Tribunal orders production of expense and mitigation documents but declines to order medical records.

The respondent in a human rights application requested an order requiring the applicant to produce documentation regarding out-of-pocket expenses, mitigation efforts, and medical evidence of psychological and physical damages.

The Tribunal ordered the production of documents related to expenses and mitigation efforts, as they were clearly relevant to the remedy sought.

The Tribunal declined to order the production of medical documents, noting the applicant had not disclosed an intent to rely on medical evidence.

The Tribunal also proposed bifurcating the upcoming hearing to deal with liability first and remedy later.

Paris Odede v. Sanmina-SCI Systems Corporation, 2010 HRTO 832

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioApr 15, 2010

Tribunal partially grants document production request and orders redactions to protect privacy of minor children.

The applicant, a former foster parent, brought a human rights application against the Children's Aid Society of Toronto and Alliance Youth Services.

During the hearing, the self-represented applicant requested an order for the production of various documents from the respondents.

The Tribunal partially granted the request, ordering the production of specific, arguably relevant documents while dismissing overbroad requests.

The Tribunal also addressed the respondents' request for a confidentiality order regarding the minor children involved, ordering certain documents sealed and others ordered redacted to protect the children's privacy.

Williams v. Children’s Aid Society of Toronto, 2010 HRTO 830

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 29, 2010

Applicant's interim requests for document production and witness attendance dismissed.

The applicant filed a Request for Order During Proceedings seeking document production, statistical data, and orders requiring specific individuals to testify or be added as parties.

The Tribunal dismissed the requests, finding no basis to add a party, noting that the respondent had already provided the requested documents and data, and observing that the respondent already intended to call the requested witnesses.

The Tribunal advised the applicant that he is responsible for summoning any additional witnesses he wishes to call.

Vo v. Complex Services, 2010 HRTO 681

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 29, 2010

Request to defer human rights application pending WSIB proceedings denied as irrelevant to preliminary objection.

The applicant requested a deferral of her human rights application until the completion of her WSIB proceedings.

The Tribunal denied the request, noting that a hearing was already scheduled to determine whether the application should be dismissed based on a prior grievance settlement.

The Tribunal found that the outstanding WSIB proceedings had no relevance to this preliminary issue.

Lemieux v. Guelph General Hospital, 2010 HRTO 687

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 25, 2010

Tribunal orders Commission to produce draft witness statement but denies production of investigator's report and notes.

The applicant requested an order requiring the Ontario Human Rights Commission to produce documents from its investigation file, including a draft witness statement, an amended complaint, an investigator's report, and file handling notes.

The Tribunal ordered the production of the draft witness statement but denied the request for the investigator's report and file handling notes, finding them irrelevant to the adjudicator's independent determination.

The Tribunal also addressed the scope of the allegations, allowing specific new allegations arising from a newly disclosed email but dismissing a general allegation of racial discrimination due to unexplained delay.

Williams v. Children’s Aid Society of Toronto, 2010 HRTO 658

Mark Hart

HRTO0 cases2007–2017

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 24, 2010

Application dismissed for lack of jurisdiction as no underlying complaint was filed with the Commission.

The applicant filed an application with the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario on June 30, 2009.

The Tribunal inquired with the Ontario Human Rights Commission regarding the status of the underlying complaint.

The Commission confirmed that the applicant had submitted a complaint form in June 2008 but it was closed as withdrawn in July 2008 and never formally filed.

The Tribunal found that because no complaint was filed with the Commission prior to June 30, 2008, it lacked jurisdiction to accept the application under the transitional provisions of section 53(5) of the Human Rights Code.

The application was dismissed.
