Yes. I made some reference to some of the factors that some of these older cases have looked at. The Ontario policy and interpretation manual cites a few cases from before I was born. They're before the rise of unpaid internships and they're before the statutory response to unpaid internships. It's not clear to me that the same response would be given now.
Certainly, when you have compensation being given to individuals on an hourly basis that's directly tied to their work, that raises serious red flags about whether it's true volunteering.
