Thanks to Workplace Prof Blog for this story about a nasty weather channel anchor who apparently believed his female co-hosts were there for his amusement.  What is the responsibility  of a Canadian employer to ensure this sort of thing does not happen?  What  sorts of legal proceedings would a woman have available to her to fight this type of misconduct in Canada?  Hint:  there are statutory mechanisms and common law action possibilities.  Are these legal mechanisms sufficient?  Why, or why not?
