MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario (HRTO) has awarded $35,000 in damages to an Indigenous transgender woman who was refused a leg wax at a salon in Windsor six years ago.
In an email to CBC, Carruthers called the ruling "unjust" and said he's "shocked by the awarded amount as a small business owner."
's human rights complaint, Carruthers issued a release and was quoted in the media as referring to a "male Brazilian wax" regarding the service A.B.
testified the respondent's remarks to media outlets "opened up a non-consensual public conversation as to the status of her physical transition," which was very traumatizing, the decision states.
allegedly threatened a "media circus" and then posted a video about Mad Wax to the Facebook page of a transgender organization.
's legal counsel from the HRLSC, said she had not yet received the application for judicial review but that the tribunal's ruling was reasonable and she believes it will be upheld.
The original article contains 748 words, the summary contains 150 words. Saved 80%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Withe the 's this seems a bit broken
