- Parties: Christopher Priest vs. Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
- Background: Priest, a retired CRA employee, claimed that CRA's educational requirements for job opportunities were discriminatory based on age, as they required computer science degrees not available during his education.
- Issue: Priest sought judicial review of the Canadian Human Rights Commission's (CHRC) decision not to proceed with his complaint.
- Court's Decision: The court granted Priest's application, finding the CHRC's decision procedurally unfair and unreasonable.
- Outcome: The CHRC's decision was set aside, and the case was ordered to be re-determined by a different decision maker. No costs were awarded.
This case highlights issues of procedural fairness and reasonable consideration in human rights complaints.
