Insurance Case Before Human Rights Tribunal

Whether an insurance company can charge more to people over the aged of 80 is the subject of an Ontario human-rights hearing starting today.

Denis Olorenshaw argues the higher premiums for older-aged drivers amounts to age discrimination.

The 92-year-old launched a complaint two years ago when a company wanted to charge him 250 dollars more than his 62-year-old daughter.
