The applicant alleged that the respondents discriminated against him on the basis of age and disability by withdrawing his acceptance into a welding program because he was 63 years old, wore bifocals, and took Percocet.
The respondents claimed the acceptance was withdrawn due to the applicant's aggressive and bullying behaviour when he confronted them about his admission.
The Tribunal found that while the respondents had concerns about the applicant's age and medication, they had not withdrawn his acceptance prior to his attendance at the institute.
The Tribunal concluded that the acceptance was ultimately withdrawn because of the applicant's confrontational demeanour, and dismissed the application.
