The applicant, a retired professor and pension plan member, alleged discrimination in services on the basis of disability after the respondent pension plan refused his requests for extended time and a different location to inspect plan documents.
The applicant claimed that his back condition, diabetes, and surgical side effects required accommodation.
The Tribunal found that while the applicant had disabilities within the meaning of the Code, he failed to establish a prima facie case of discrimination because there was insufficient evidence that the one-day inspection policy or the location disadvantaged him.
The Tribunal also dismissed allegations that the respondent breached the Code by requesting medical particulars or reprised against the applicant for filing a human rights complaint.
The applications were dismissed.
