Is there any evidence of discrimination on the basis of race?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Walcott v. Christianson and Reid, 2006 BCHRT 260 (CanLII):
As stated in Mezghrani v. Canada Youth Orange Network (CYONI) (No. 2), 2006 BCHRT 60 (para. 28), discrimination on the basis of race is frequently subtle. Direct evidence of racial discrimination is rarely available, and such discrimination must often be inferred from the conduct in issue.
