Ontario Tribunal Dismisses Discrimination Complaint
News summary

The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal dismissed a racial discrimination complaint from a Black worker in a Correctional Training Program, citing a lack of evidence linking his treatment to his race. Employment lawyer Christopher Achkar emphasized the challenges in proving both individual and institutional racism, particularly when the discrimination is subtle. Similarly, the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal also dismissed a harassment complaint from a worker at Tim Hortons, highlighting the necessity of concrete evidence for claims of discrimination and harassment. Jeremy Herman, another employment lawyer, noted that without actual proof, allegations, no matter how strongly felt, may not lead to a successful complaint. In a separate case, actor Sandro Muhlach’s HR complaint against his alleged abusers was moved for dismissal due to claims of insufficient evidence to support his story. These cases collectively illustrate the complexities and hurdles faced by individuals seeking justice for workplace discrimination and harassment.
