Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Khan v. Peel Condominium Corporation No. 492, 2016 HRTO 419 (CanLII):
The respondent takes no position with respect to the applicant’s request to be permitted to amend his Application to increase the amount claimed for injury to dignity, feelings and self-respect, and this amendment is permitted in accordance with the test in Wozenilek v. 7-Eleven, 2009 HRTO 926, by “taking into account the stage at which the request to amend is made, the nature of the amendment and the absence of any apparent prejudice.” Since the respondent takes no position, there is no prejudice to it.
