CLEO’s On the Radar – Getting a fair tribunal hearing during COVID-19

At the beginning of COVID-19, tribunals across Ontario were forced to close. Many have now re-opened using remote or virtual hearings by video or telephone. This includes the Landlord and Tenant Board, the Ontario Labour Relations Board, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Board, and the Social Benefits Tribunal.

This month’s On the Radar looks at what a fair hearing means and what people can do to protect their rights.
