+*The Commission can independently initiate federal human rights complaints but normally assists in their drafting and investigates complaints lodged by  individuals or organizations. If insufficient evidence of discrimination is presented, the Commission can dismiss the complaint. If the Commission finds that the allegations of discrimination warrant mediation or adjudication, it can refer cases to conciliation or to the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal for hearing.
