The course is offered by the Ontario Human Rights Commission, and their latest edition opens with an animated video telling viewers that the Human Rights Code “is not meant to punish.”
Literally three paragraphs above this one:
The Human Rights Tribunal ultimately ordered the Township to pay $10,000 to Borderland Pride, and for McQuaker to personally pay them another $5,000.
They do not punish, they just fine when you do not do what they want when they want in the way they want.
“As a lawyer who does this work that means I’m going to start taking people’s houses and their vehicles and their toys and draining their bank accounts and garnishing their wages because no one is going to stop behaving this way until there are real consequences,” he said.
Using the Human Rights Code for "consequences", not "punishment"! Very different! Not petty or vindictive at all! Thank you for the clarification Borderland Pride director Douglas Judson.
