Is there any evidence that the respondents experienced stereotyping or prejudice?
Alberta, Canada
The following excerpt is from Morrow v. Zhang, 2009 ABCA 215 (CanLII):
The appellants also say that there was no evidence that the respondents themselves experienced stereotyping or prejudice. However, as the trial judge correctly noted, “if claimants prove that the equality rights of members of the group to which they belong have been infringed, they need not establish a violation of their own particular rights”: Eldridge v. British Columbia (Attorney General), 1997 CanLII 327 (SCC), [1997] 3 S.C.R. 624 at para. 83.
