A concern about discrimination may involve the type of activity, the people involved, the reasons for the treatment and the applicable law. Not every unfair experience follows the same legal process, and different bodies may have different jurisdictions.
Three practical starting points
Keep dates, relevant correspondence, witness details and the specific treatment you are concerned about.
Review the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission’s current information and consider whether a federal or another process may apply.
Confirm current complaint and review procedures directly with the responsible body or qualified adviser.
