J. Curtis McDonnell

The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination in employment on the basis of race, colour, ancestry, place of origin, and ethnic origin.

During a summary hearing held by teleconference to assess whether the application had no reasonable prospect of success, the applicant stated she did not wish to proceed and requested to withdraw the application.

The respondents consented, and the Tribunal granted the request, closing the file.

The applicant, a former Assessor/Case Manager, alleged that his employer and manager discriminated against him on the basis of race and ethnic origin, culminating in his termination.

The applicant claimed he was subjected to psychological abuse, denied opportunities, and treated differently than a favored 'inner circle' of employees.

The Tribunal found that the applicant's termination and the manager's actions were based on legitimate work performance issues, including extraordinary tardiness and failure to maintain up-to-date client files.

The application was dismissed as the evidence did not support the allegations of discrimination or harassment.
