Human Rights in British Columbia: Racial Discrimination
This video has been created to help you understand racial
discrimination in B.C. If you have any questions, please contact the
BC Human Rights Clinic.
British Columbia has a law to protect and promote human rights.
It is called the BC Human Rights Code or the Code. The Code protects
you from being treated badly or denied a benefit because of your
race, the colour of your skin, your ancestry or your place of origin
(where you were born). It allows you to file a complaint with
the BC Human Rights Tribunal if you believe you have been
discriminated against.
The Code also protects you from retaliation if you make, or are
thinking about making, a complaint or are involved in some other
way. It is retaliation when someone tries to harm you or get back
at you.
