The Tribunal reasoned that harassment, with respect to a prohibited ground of discrimination, is discrimination. She applied the law relating to sexual harassment in the employment setting to harassment on the prohibited ground of sexual orientation in the school environment, citing (at para. 91) Robichaud at 88-89; Janzen v. Platy Enterprises Ltd., 1989 CanLII 97 (SCC), [1989] 1 S.C.R. 1252.
