British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Schelin v. Victoria Police Department and Szucs, 2006 BCHRT 70 (CanLII):

Second, the delay in this case is significant; the complaint was filed nine months after the expiry of the six-month time limit. The length of the delay is a relevant factor, and in this case weighs heavily against accepting the complaint: Fontaine v. Ainsworth Lumber, 2005 BCHRT 565 at para. 21.
