Application against truck rental company dismissed as its extra-provincial operations fall under federal jurisdiction.
The applicant filed a human rights application alleging employment discrimination against two respondents.
One respondent, a truck rental company, brought a preliminary request to dismiss the application against it on the basis that its operations fall under federal jurisdiction.
The Tribunal found that the respondent's operations involved continuous and regular extra-provincial transportation of goods.
Consequently, the Tribunal concluded that the respondent is a federal undertaking under s. 92(10)(a) of the Constitution Act, 1867, and dismissed the application against it for lack of jurisdiction.
