Application allowed to proceed; not plain and obvious that delay lacked good faith explanation.
The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination based on sex and pregnancy following the termination of her employment.
The application was filed more than one year after the termination.
The respondent requested the application be dismissed for delay.
The applicant explained the delay was due to initially filing with the Canadian Human Rights Commission, which later determined it lacked jurisdiction.
The Tribunal found it was not plain and obvious that the application lacked a good faith explanation for the delay and allowed the application to proceed.
