The applicants hired the respondent construction company to replace their front porch.
A dispute arose during the pouring of the concrete when the applicants demanded the work be stopped and re-done because a wall had not been tarred.
The respondent's representative refused to re-do the work, allegedly making a hurtful comment that 'everybody hates you', and abandoned the job without billing the applicants.
The applicants alleged the refusal to complete the work was discriminatory based on their sexual orientation.
The Tribunal dismissed the application, finding that the respondent's refusal to re-do the job was motivated by a belief that he would not be paid, rather than the applicants' sexual orientation, and that the applicants suffered no adverse treatment as they received a new porch free of charge.
