In Yan v. Daniel (Ont CA, 2023) the Court of Appeal quotes the leading Bhadauria case, that bars lawsuits for human rights violations:
[12] On the hearing of the motion, the appellant (through counsel appearing on a limited retainer) conceded that the torts of constructive discrimination and harassment are not recognized torts in Ontario: see Seneca College of Applied Arts and Technology v. Bhadauria, 1981 CanLII 29 (SCC), [1981] 2 S.C.R. 181, and Merrifield v. Canada (Attorney General), 2019 ONCA 205, 145 O.R. (3d) 494, leave to appeal refused, [2019] S.C.C.A. No. 174.
