Rulings, legal trends and employment data from across Canada, built to move as you scroll. Follow the facts the way the decision-maker did, see where the case turned and find what it means for your workplace.
What is interactive storytelling?
A decision can run dozens of pages. The question that matters is usually simpler: what happened, what test applied and why it came out the way it did. Our interactives walk through that, step by step.
01
The facts unfold in order, the way the decision-maker heard them. Timelines draw, key dates land and the turning point is marked when you reach it.
02
Weigh the evidence, test your instincts against the ruling and explore how the outcome might shift for your own employees and policies.
03
Every fact comes from the decision or the source and is checked against it. Each piece cites the case, so you can go straight to the source.
