Under the Canadian Human Rights Act, how many grounds of discrimination are prohibited?

The correct answer is: 11

The correct answer is that the Canadian Human Rights Act prohibits discrimination on 11 grounds. These grounds include race, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, family status, disability, and conviction for an offense for which a pardon has been granted or in respect of which a record suspension has been ordered. Understanding these grounds is crucial for ensuring compliance with the Act and fostering an inclusive environment that respects and promotes the rights of all individuals. The incorrect options reflect a misunderstanding of the current legal framework, as the Act specifically enumerates these 11 grounds, which have been established to protect against various forms of discrimination. This distinction is important for those studying or working within the realm of human rights and workplace safety.
