Judicial review of HRTO decision dismissed; limitation period triggered by denial of tenure, not subsequent grievance.
The applicant, a former probationary professor, sought judicial review of a Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario decision dismissing her discrimination and reprisal application against the university.
The Tribunal had found her application was filed outside the one-year limitation period, calculating the time from the date she was denied tenure rather than her final day of employment or the denial of her grievance.
The Tribunal also dismissed her reprisal claim and denied her request to amend the application.
The Divisional Court held that the Tribunal's decisions were reasonable, finding that the denial of tenure was the triggering event and that there was no evidence of an intention to retaliate by the university.
Board denies casino's adjournment request in security guard certification and orders employer to proceed first.
The union applied for certification to represent security guards at the responding party's casino.
The employer raised preliminary objections, including that the union was not a registered supplier under the Gaming Control Act and that certification would create a conflict of interest under s. 14 of the Labour Relations Act, 1995.
The employer sought an adjournment pending the union's registration application, which the Board denied, citing the need for expedition in certification matters.
The Board also ordered mutual production of documents and directed the employer to proceed first on the conflict of interest objection to ensure an efficient hearing.
