Want to be hired to work on a 2SLGBTQI project for the trans rights group lobbying the CRTC to ban Fox News? Well if you are a white person, you aren't eligible. Ironically, Egale is getting $336,310 from the Trudeau government for "Anti-Racism" work.
It's sad because Egale used to be pretty based & vigorously defended free speech. Back in 2002, a pastor named Stephen Boissoin wrote a letter to the editor of the Red Deer Advocate that compared gay people to pedophiles and drug dealers. It was published under the headline "Homosexual agenda wicked" and he talked about a "war on homosexuality" ie the war on drugs, the war on poverty, etc.
This straight uni prof in Calgary (100 miles away) got upset and filed a human rights complaint against him- that awful kangaroo court of course found him guilty and banned him from quoting anti-gay parts of the bible, even in private. They also made him pay the prof a tax-free settlement which looked so bad the prof said he was going to donate it to Egale. But Egale refused to take the money and in fact defended the pastor: https://web.archive.org/web/20090318080201/http://ezralevant.com/2009/02/gay-magazine-abolish-human-rig.html
