After months of searching for a weekend job, Bukola, who is Black, finally got an interview with

the owner of a busy car wash and gas station. The owner seemed reluctant to hire him, but Bukola

managed to win him over. The owner gave him the job, saying that he would be working on a

weekend shift with seven other young men, all students from the local area. The shift manager

would train him on the car wash equipment. Bukola was a devout Christian who would come early

to work and spend some time to pray. He had a strong accent and a relatively loud voice which

could sound intimidate but he was very calm and jovial.

On Bukola's first day, the shift manager gave him only a few minutes of instruction on the

equipment. Bukola watched what the other men were doing, but when he asked questions, they

were not very helpful. On a few occasions Emma in the presence of the other colleagues would

jokingly ask him to speak slowly and in English. On other occasions, Ranovic would as if his

prayers will help bring manner from heaven because he is hungry

Over the next few weekends, Bukola concentrated on his work but because of certain events, he

increasingly began to stay by himself. A few co-workers invited him to join their little group for

lunch or breaks, but others consistently cracked ethnic and racial jokes, often within hearing of the

shift manager. One day Bukola overheard the manager say that Black people were responsible for

increased violence in the community although some are too religious and lazy. This statement

encouraged some co-workers, who had previously eaten lunch with Bukola, to tell a couple of

jokes about Black people. When they glanced at him as they told their jokes, he got up and walked

away.

One busy Saturday afternoon, a whole section of the car wash equipment broke down because

someone had allowed the system to become overheated. Bukola had worked on that section until

his break, when a co-worker took over. The system had broken down at some point after that.

The shift manager was furious and accused Bukola of negligence. Bukola replied that he believed

the system was fine when he left for his break. Although Bukola insisted that the equipment failure

was not his fault, the shift manager fired him. Bukola believed he was discriminated against

because he is Black, while his co-workers and managers are White.

Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom has on the decision of the management.
