If there isn't anything more than what is mentioned in the article, it's highly that the CDPDJ would rule against Ubi if the dismissal is challenged; this would likely be protected as Freedom of Expression, as nothing negative was said about Ubi besides the implication that Ubi thought that their employees wouldn't see their motives. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] MangoCats@feddit.it 2 points 7 months ago* (2 children) Curious: Does Montreal allow "employment at will" like most states in the US do? If it does, I can't imagine an UbiSoft contract not including it.

If the employee has more than 2 years of service they simply cannot be dismissed without just cause. Even under 2 years there are a bunch of protections, but at 2+ it gets harder. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] MangoCats@feddit.it 2 points 7 months ago Yeah, that kind of worker protection pretty much died in 'murica 25+ years ago. permalink fedilink source parent
