Vriend v. Alberta : ウィキペディア英語版 | Vriend v Alberta ''Vriend v Alberta'' () 1 S.C.R. 493 is an important Supreme Court of Canada case that determined that a legislative omission can be the subject of a Charter violation. The case involved a dismissal of a teacher because of his sexual orientation and was an issue of great controversy during that period. == History == Delwin Vriend was dismissed from his position as a lab coordinator at King's College, a private religious college in Edmonton, Alberta, because of his sexual orientation. He was prevented from making a complaint under the ''Alberta Individual Rights Protection Act'' because the legislation did not include sexual orientation as a prohibited ground of discrimination. Vriend sought a declaration from the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench that the omission breached section 15 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms 1982. Justice Russell of the Court of Queen's Bench found in favor of Vriend as the exclusion of sexual orientation as a protected ground of discrimination from ss. 7(1), 8(1) and 10 of the Individual’s Rights Protection Act (IRPA) violates s. 15(1) of the Charter and could not be saved under section 1.〔http://scc-csc.lexum.com/scc-csc/scc-csc/en/item/1607/index.do〕 The Alberta Court of Appeal, in a decision written by Justice McClung, overturned the trial decision.
