SUMMARY
On November 14, 2011, we wrote Ontario’s Human Rights Tribunal, Human Rights Commission, and Human Rights Legal Support Centre, to ask for detailed information on how Ontario’s Human Rights Code is now being enforced. Those letters are available at:

We and many others need this information to give our input to the Review of Ontario’s Human Rights System which the McGuinty Government appointed Toronto lawyer Andrew Pinto to conduct. For more on that Review, visit:

As of January 23, 2012, we have received responses from all
three human rights agencies. They answer many of our questions, but clearly not
all of them. We make these public here.
