Marrello v. Duca in Toronto Star

Donovan Vincent of the Toronto Star covered the ongoing case in Marrello v. Duca, quoting Omar Ha-Redeye,

Omar Ha-Redeye, her lawyer, says she mentioned the word pregnancy during the phone call. Her period was a few weeks late, and she wasn’t feeling well when she asked to see the doctor.

…

In an interview, Marrello’s lawyer said given Marrello’s years of service, if it believed she wasn’t a good fit in her new role, the more appropriate response should have been to give her more training or if that wasn’t feasible, a warning. As a last resort a new position should have been found for her within the organization, the lawyer argues.

“As opposed to simply terminating her, coincidentally after finding out she is pregnant,” Ha-Redeye said. He called the timing “very suspicious.”
