You will recall from the Workplace Law video Human Rights Fact Pattern: X-treme Madness, that Gail Thorel was employed as a graphic designer with a video game developer called X-treme Madness. A colleague of Ms. Thorel's, Amir Sauvey, had complained to their supervisor about Ms. Thorel loudly voicing her religious beliefs on homosexuality while at work. When their supervisor and the HR director met with Ms. Thorel and told her that her desk was being moved to a separate area and that she was no longer permitted to speak about her religious beliefs at work, Ms. Thorel stormed out of the office and filed a complaint with the Human Rights Tribunal.

If Mr. Sauvey were to make a claim under the Human Rights Code, against whom

could he make such a claim?

a) Ms. Thorel and X-treme Madness, but not the supervisor because the supervisor provided an accommodation to eliminate the discriminatory behaviour.

b) X-treme Madness because, as the employer, they were responsible for ensuring a workplace free from discrimination and harassment and they allowed Ms. Thorel to express her religious beliefs at work.

c) Ms. Thorel because she was independently responsible for the discriminatory conduct.

d) Mr. Sauvey could make a claim against Ms. Thorel, the supervisor, and the employer.

e) The supervisor because they hadn't done anything to stop Ms. Thorel.
