What is the effect of using hostile and intemperate language in the context of discrimination?

Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada


The following excerpt is from A.H. v R.B, 2022 NLCA 9 (CanLII):

The mother references Cabana v. Newfoundland and Labrador, 2014 NLCA 34, 356 Nfld. & P.E.I.R. 103, in her factum and suggests that the use of hostile and intemperate language can raise a reasonable apprehension of bias. I agree.
