'There wasn't even evidence to show that discrimination could be inferred'
The British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal has dismissed a worker’s complaint of discrimination on the basis of both race and physical disability. Ultimately, it came to down to the fact that the worker had no real proof of discrimination and the employer could show non-discriminatory reasons for the worker’s termination, says Jackie Laviolette, an employment and labour lawyer at Mathews Dinsdale in Calgary.
