Brief to the Canadian Human Rights Act Review Panel

This brief was the basis of a NAWL presentation to the Canadian Human Rights Act Review Panel in October 1999 in Vancouver. The brief addresses issues of procedures, such as speedier complaint processing and guaranteed access to the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal, as well as substantive changes to the Act. Drawing on a series of case studies, NAWL’s Brief illustrates how the Act itself is in fact a source of discrimination.
