What is the current state of the law on discrimination and reprisal in a hiring process?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Felix v. Metafore IT Solutions Hartco, 2016 HRTO 1315 (CanLII):

In Felix v. Canadian Tire Corporation, 2014 HRTO 1615, the applicant alleged that he had experienced discrimination and reprisal in a hiring process. The allegations in that case included an allegation that the respondent’s hiring committee consisted of two Black men. The applicant, who identifies as a Black man, alleged that this was done to cover up the respondent’s intention to discriminate against him because of race and colour. As in the instant case, the applicant also made allegations that events when he was employed by an earlier employer had played a role in his not being hired. I declined to declare the applicant a vexatious litigant at that time.
