Guest BROWNer Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 i'm just curious if anyone on here, especially from canada, knows the legal ins and outs of job references.... specifically, is it illegal to give a bad reference? can that be considered defamation? ?

Guest platapie Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 i think if you lie on your app and they find out they jus throw your app away. i mean unless they catch you on some real illegal green card type shit i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
