Request to sever two racial profiling human rights complaints dismissed due to sufficient commonalities.
The Ottawa Police Services Board and individual officers requested an order to sever two human rights complaints alleging racial profiling during traffic stops, which had been consolidated by the Ontario Human Rights Commission.
The Tribunal determined that while it is not bound by the Commission's decision to consolidate, the complaints share sufficient commonalities in facts, issues, and policies to warrant being heard together.
The request to sever the complaints was dismissed.
