The small northern Canadian town we live in has made it hard for single females in the community to live after it was agreed to bring in industrial oil and gas. The impact assessment they did before they agreed to have industry here had shown that women were already impacted by homelessness and poverty with limited resources and rentals to help them. In fact our town has more homeless women than men. I cannot work at the oil and gas plant due to a medical condition in which I use medicinal marijuana for management. All industry that has a higher pay scale, tests for marijuana. It has put me in poverty where I cannot even afford to move even if I wanted to.
Hi ****, thanks for sharing your situation. It sounds really tough. Have you considered reaching out to any local women's shelters or legal aid organizations in your area for assistance with housing and legal support?
I'm fortunate to have housing however I have no income. Would I have a case of some under BC Human Rights or Human Rights. There has been several women impacted in the community and not just myself.
Hi ****! It's great to hear that you have housing, but I'm sorry to hear about the challenges you're facing.
Under the BC Human Rights Code, discrimination based on sex, disability, and source of income is prohibited. It sounds like there might be a potential case if women in your community are being disproportionately affected by these industrial developments.
Here are a few points to consider:
- Discrimination: You may have a case if the industrial development has led to systemic discrimination against women.
- Disability: If your medical condition and the use of medicinal marijuana are affecting your ability to work, this could potentially be a case of disability discrimination.
- Community Impact: The broader impact on women in your community could strengthen your case.
