Incomplete question. The full question read;
Is this prohibited discrimination under the Alberta Human Rights Act?
1) Yes: the prohibited ground would be race, and the prohibited area would be employment.
2) Yes: the prohibited area would be expression, and the prohibited ground would be employment.
3) No: the prohibited area is employment, but there is no prohibited ground.
4) Yes: Derik's freedom of expression is directly involved.
Answer:
1) Yes: the prohibited ground would be race, and the prohibited area would be employment.
Explanation:
The Alberta Human Rights Act prohibits discrimination in a company's employment practices. In other words, the Alberta Act covers discrimination in the area of employment.
Also, the prohibited ground would be race, since the very practice of having multiple nose and facial piercings is usually done among a particular race.
