The OHRC said while caste is not a prescribed protected category, it is covered by international human rights law and hence, can be protected under the Ontario Human Rights Code.

If I'm not mistaken, there are general descriptions too, so I don't think the list is exclusive. I think it's a good idea to specify what categories you can so that in future human rights challenges, you don't have various interested groups trying to argue differing interpretations. Interpretations of vague language can vary and this can tend to lead us away from the spirit of an otherwise good law.
