The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination in employment on the basis of disability more than two years after his employment was terminated.
The Tribunal held a preliminary hearing to determine if the delay was incurred in good faith.
The applicant argued that language barriers prevented him from understanding his termination until much later.
The Tribunal rejected this explanation, noting the applicant had previously sought translation assistance from his uncle and had retained a paralegal for WSIB matters during the relevant period.
Finding no good faith explanation for the delay, the Tribunal dismissed the application.
