Case considered: Boissoin v. Lund, 2009 ABQB 592
PDF version: Court of Queen’s Bench Overturns Panel Decision in Boissoin v. Lund
Justice Earl Wilson of the Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench recently overturned the Human Rights Panel decision, which found that Mr. Stephen Boissoin and the Concerned Christian Coalition Inc. had, in a letter to the editor of a newspaper published June 17, 2002, expressed comments likely to expose gay persons to hatred and/or contempt due to their sexual orientation.
