BC’s HRC protects against discrimination in tenancy on the basis of an individual’s source of income. It only applies in the area of tenancy. This protects the tenancy rights of individuals on social assistance or disability pensions who might otherwise be denied safe housing. Please refer to ''[https://www.canlii.org/en/bc/bchrt/doc/2003/2003bchrt36/2003bchrt36.html Tanner v Vlake]'', 2003 BCHRT 36 at paras 22–26 for further discussion on this protected ground. For a more recent case, please see '[https://www.canlii.org/en/bc/bchrt/doc/2012/2012bchrt49/2012bchrt49.html 'Day v Kumar and another (No 3)]'', 2012 BCHRT 49.
