Fish and Asparagus Ltd. ("FASL") is a federally incorporated business that operates a restaurant in each of Ottawa, Toronto, and Kitchener, Ontario. It also sells frozen dinners to grocery chains across Canada. The frozen dinners are produced at its facility in Burlington Ontario.

The pandemic has been very difficult on the 3 restaurants in Ottawa, Toronto and Kitchener. Aside from the pandemic, an employee who recently quit has stolen its secret recipe for its famous fish and asparagus meal and is refusing to return it unless he is paid $500,000. He says he will give it to a competitor unless he is paid.

Another frozen food manufacturer has started using a logo that looks very much like FASL's except instead of a grey fish topped with asparagus, the competitor's logo is a grey fish topped with green beans.

In addition, FASL's CEO has just learned that a manager in its Toronto restaurant, Freddy Fowler, was asking job applicants about their religious beliefs during job interviews and refusing to hire some people based on those beliefs.
