Request to add personal respondents in condominium discrimination claim denied as corporate respondent is vicariously liable.
The applicant, a condominium unit owner, alleged discrimination based on race, colour, and sex after being denied access to condominium records.
In this interim decision, the applicant requested to add the property manager, the property management company, and the vice-president of the Board of Directors as personal respondents, alleging a conspiracy.
The Tribunal denied the request, finding that the corporate respondent would be vicariously liable for any discrimination and that adding personal respondents would unnecessarily complicate the proceedings without a compelling juridical reason.
Tribunal adds condominium corporation as respondent but refuses to remove board president in discrimination claim.
The applicant alleged discrimination based on race, colour, and sex after being denied access to condominium records.
In this interim decision, the Tribunal addressed several preliminary requests.
The Tribunal added the condominium corporation as a respondent but declined to remove the board president as a personal respondent, noting that his individual conduct was at issue.
The Tribunal also permitted the applicant to amend her ground of discrimination from gender identity to sex.
The request to add the property manager, property management company, and board vice-president was deferred pending further submissions.
Tribunal declined to defer human rights application because concurrent WSIB proceeding raised unrelated issues.
The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination and failure to accommodate with respect to employment because of disability, as well as termination due to disability.
The Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Defer because the applicant had an ongoing WSIB proceeding.
The applicant argued that the WSIB proceeding dealt with ongoing entitlement for a low back injury and recognition of permanent impairment, which were unrelated to the human rights allegations of harassment, failure to accommodate, and discriminatory termination.
The Tribunal agreed that the WSIB proceedings raised issues unrelated to the human rights application and declined to defer the matter.
Human rights application alleging discrimination via a 'Kosher Tax' on groceries dismissed for no reasonable prospect of success.
The applicant filed a human rights application alleging that several grocery store chains discriminated against him on the basis of creed by collecting a 'Kosher Tax' on food items.
The respondents requested a summary hearing to dismiss the application.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to establish the existence of such a tax or demonstrate how he was treated differently from other customers based on his creed.
Concluding there was no reasonable prospect of success, the Tribunal dismissed the application.
Human rights applications dismissed; applicant was removed from store for disruptive behaviour, not discrimination.
The applicant alleged discrimination on the basis of colour, age, and disability after being asked to leave a Best Buy store and subsequently being banned from the Eaton Centre by Cadillac Fairview security.
The respondents maintained the applicant was removed due to loud, disruptive, and abusive behaviour.
The Tribunal found no evidence that the applicant's age, colour, or disability played any role in the respondents' actions, concluding that the applicant was removed solely for creating a disturbance.
The applications were dismissed.
