What can you do if you expect an old employer will give a negative reference?
Legally your previous employer cannot give a negative feedback to a potential new employer. All they can do is verify employment, dates of employment, and the position held by the employee.

Can legal action be taken against the employer that gives a bad reference?
The only things that a previous employer can say are #1- if you are re-hirable and #2 - what dates you were employed there. The problem is that in order to take legal action you have to be able to 100% PROVE that the previous employer said more than that. An employer can give a negative reference for a former employee if they wish to, but they are not required to. The employer may be exposed to liability, or at least to the expense and distraction of a lawsuit, if it gives such a reference. The former employee may allege that the information provided was false or misleading. The burden of proof would be on the employee to prove what the employer said and how it was defamatory. Truth is a defense to the employer. For this reason, many employers have policies prohibiting giving any reference, positive or negative, and will only confirm the dates of your employment and last title. Some employers may disclose if you are re-hirable, but a non-answer or negative answer to this question could again expose the employer to claims.
Is it illegal in Ontario Canada for an ex employer to give a bad reference?
An employer is not obligated to provide any reference to a former employee. Therefore, you cannot force your former employer to give you a reference. ¾ If you can prove that your former employer gave you an improper reference, and if you can prove that you did not get a job because of it, you may be able to sue your former employer. (The legal terms for this wrong include "defamation," "injurious falsehood," "negligence" or "negligent misstatement.") ¾ It is very difficult to prove both that the reference was improper, and that you would have got the job if it were not for the bad reference. Even if you can prove that an improper reference was given, you still have to prove that you would have landed the job except for the reference. New employers will seldom, if ever, give you that information. ¾ The fact that an employer refused to provide a reference, or provided a bad one, may increase your former employer's liability if you are suing your former employer for wrongful dismissal. The form of a reference letter and what will be said when new employer contacts your former employer is often negotiated as part of a wrongful dismissal settlement. ¾ Technically, the Consumer Reporting Act of Ontario prohibits prospective employers from seeking a reference unless you have given permission in writing. Sometimes this permission is included in the application for employment. Generally, employers are unaware of their obligations under this statute. ¾ If you request it, the Consumer Reporting Act also requires an employer who does not hire you as a result of a negative reference to inform you of the negative reference and what was said. However, most employers are unaware of their obligations under the Consumer Reporting Act, and it is very difficult to enforce this claim.
