In April, the Human Rights Commission released its Policy on Competing Human Rights.  This policy provides importance guidance on what to do when to accommodate the rights of one person leads to a possible breach of the rights of another.   This comes up sometimes for our clients and so we were excited to receive an invitation today to attend a free training session on how to use this policy.  We plan to be there and you may want to too!    

The Ontario Human Rights Commission invites you to:
