summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
courses of instruction or training charter legislation
Summary:

A decision as to whether to refer one to a course is discretionary with the CEIC and cannot be demanded as of right. Hence, I cannot accept that s.26 somehow discriminates against claimant as to her rights under ss.15(1) of the Charter. Any distinction relates to legitimate qualification standards.

Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
courses of instruction or training charter legislation
Summary:

I am not persuaded that s.26 of the UI Act infringes any right protected by s.15(1) of the Charter. The distinctions between claimants referred and not referred relate to legitimate qualification standards and have nothing to do with distinctions based on characteristics of individuals or groups.
