What evidence exists to support an allegation that an applicant was singled out due to his age?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Smith v. London Police Services Board, 2014 HRTO 158 (CanLII):
The applicant’s belief that he was singled out due to his age is not evidence but a mere assumption. See Sosoo v. Winners Merchants Incorporated and Workers United Ontario Council, 2010 HRTO 1367, para. 71. On a balance of probabilities I cannot find that the applicant’s age was a factor in the respondent’s treatment of him in the Park during the incident.
