Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Haseeb v. Imperial Oil Limited, 2019 HRTO 1174 (CanLII):
As stated above, it is well-established that in human rights cases, an award for lost income is not limited to the period of reasonable notice, as in a wrongful dismissal claim, but extends over such period of time as is required to restore an applicant to the position they would have been in but for the discrimination. See, Airport Taxicab (Malton) Association v. Piazza, above.
