Thank You for your reply. My employer is Provincially regulated and terminated me for "Just Cause" and offered me a settlement. However, they are basing their reason for dismissal due to a past criminal chsrge that has come to light for which there was never a registered conviction (Conditional Discharge) So is this a form of discrimmination under the OHRC for "record of offence" as outlined in the protective grounds section?

You very likely have both a claim for wrongful dismissal and discrimination. I strongly recommend speaking to an employment lawyer at our firm who can help you to obtain both your entitlements upon termination and a possible damages award
