What forms of discrimination fall under human rights?
In Ontario, there are multiple areas in which are protected against discrimination. These include race, ancestry, ethnic origin, citizenship, colour, religious beliefs, disabilities, gender, pregnancy, sexual orientation and gender expression and family or marital status. Discrimination based on these areas goes against human rights.

Can my employer fire me for being pregnant?
Your employer is not allowed to fire you because you are pregnant.
