Human rights application not time-barred; limitation period runs from effective date of termination, not notice date.
The respondent requested that the human rights application be dismissed for delay, arguing it was filed beyond the one-year time limit under s. 34 of the Human Rights Code.
The applicant received notice of termination on November 2 or 5, 2012, effective November 9, 2012, and filed the application on November 6, 2013.
The Tribunal held that the final act of discrimination in a dismissal is the effective date of termination, not the date notice is received.
Therefore, the application was filed within the one-year time limit and the respondent's request was denied.
