The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination in employment on the basis of disability.
The respondent sought early dismissal of the application because the applicant had signed a full and final release in exchange for a severance package.
The applicant argued the release should be set aside because he was induced to sign it by the respondent's fraudulent misrepresentation that his termination was due to restructuring.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to meet the test for fraudulent misrepresentation, specifically the requirement to repudiate the agreement and return the settlement funds within a reasonable time.
The application was dismissed as an abuse of process.
