Proving Discrimination - Ontario Court Sets Record Straight

On February 28, 2005, the Ontario Superior Court reversed a decision of the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal finding that race was not a factor in the discharge of Mark Smith, a black employee, by the operator of the Mr. Lube franchise in Brampton, Ontario. The Court made it clear that effect, not motive, is the litmus test of discrimination.
