personal bankruptcy in Ontario

Question: If a person files bankruptcy in Ontario are they able to launch a civil suit against an employer?

Answer: Yes, but if you are bankrupt any "winnings" you get from a lawsuit become property of your bankruptcy estate and are turned over to your creditors, so it only makes sense to sue someone while bankrupt if you have a reasonable expectation of recovering more than enough money to repay your creditors in full.
