Ontario (Human Rights Commission) v Etobicoke (Borough of), [1982] 1 S.C.R. 202 is a leading Supreme Court of Canada decision on age discrimination. Several firemen challenged a mandatory retirement policy under the Ontario Human Rights Code. The Court found that the employer did not sufficiently justify the policy as a bona fide occupational requirement.
Harold Hall and Vincent Gray were firemen in the borough of Etobicoke, Ontario. As part of the collective agreement between the borough and the union, all firefighters were required to retire at the age of 60. When Hall and Grey were forced to retire they brought a complaint for age discrimination under section 4(1) of the Ontario Human Rights Code which prohibited discrimination in recruitment or dismissal based on age among other grounds.
The respondents defended their actions by arguing that the rule was a bona fide occupational requirement (BFOR). Namely, that the rule was required to maintain an acceptable standard for firefighting.
Maybe will be tomorrow
Happier than today.
What about my sorrow,
Clouds will carry away.
Where the happiness waits for
Knows only the sky.
I don't want the rain more,
Though I wanted one for a while.
You don't believe me and you laugh,
But in one day I'll be found by my love.
You don't believe my tears,
Them clouds will bring away.
Away, my way goes far away.
I'll forget you, and my dreams
Will be with me and fly,
I'll be where there aren't my tears and your lie.
Where is sunny tomorrow,
There is a rain, tell me, why?
What about my sorrow
Knows only the sky.
You don't believe me and you laugh,
But in one day I'll be found by my love.
You don't believe my tears,
Them clouds will bring away.
Away, my way goes far away.
I'll forget you, and my dreams
Will be with me and fly,
