Adjudicator: Brian Eyolfson

Date: June 14, 2011

Citation: 2011 HRTO 1150

Indexed as: Hsieh v. Election Canada & Trinity Spadina Riding

1The applicant filed an Application under s. 34 of the Human Rights Code, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.19, as amended (the “Code”), on April 15, 2011.

2On April 18, 2011, the Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss the Application (NOID) on the basis that the Application appears to be outside the Tribunal’s power to decide. The applicant was directed to respond to the issues raised in the NOID by no later than May 18, 2011. The NOID advised the applicant that a failure to respond to the NOID may be considered an abandonment of the Application and it might be dismissed for that reason.

3The applicant has not responded to the NOID and the time for doing so has now passed.

4In the circumstances, the applicant is deemed to have abandoned the Application.

5The Application is dismissed.
