²⁹ Armstrong’s note provided valuable assistance in thinking about this section.

³⁰ See Armstrong, above, n 23. See also the views of Tesauro AG in P, above n 1. He advocated at para 9 the need for law to keep pace with the times “otherwise it risks imposing outdated views and taking on a static role. [It] must therefore be capable of regulating new situations brought to light by social change and advances in society”. Consequently, a directive of 1976 which took account of what was “normal” at that stage should now be construed in a broader perspective. He said that it was necessary to go beyond the traditional classification and recognise that, in addition to the man/woman dichotomy, there is a range of characteristics, behaviour and roles shared by men and women so that sex itself ought to be thought of as a continuum.

³¹ See EOR No.78, March/April 1998, 48, 49.

She submitted that such an interpretation followed from the judgment in P v.

The argument that the Equal Treatment Directive prohibits discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation was dropped.

¹⁰⁸ In Egan, above n 48, Cory and Iacobucci JJ observed at para.175 that section 15(1) of the Charter encompasses aspects of status and conduct and that both should receive protection. Sexual orientation is demonstrated in a person’s choice of a life partner, whether heterosexual or homosexual. It follows that a lawful relationship which flows from sexual orientation should also be protected.
