Delicious: A restaurateur violated a male applicant’s human rights when he posted a job ad seeking “female only” servers, the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal ruled despite hearing evidence the man might not have wanted the job in the first place.

Phew! Dodged a bullet there – for now. But as we get more ‘progressive’ you may not be able to request only female responses to your “Personal ad”…
I’m breathlessly anticipating the day a male Junior “B” hockey player takes the Canadian Women’s National Team (where he’d be the best player on the team,by far) to the HRC.
Didn’t Saint Saul recommend using the enemy’s own rules against him?
Hooters is really going to suck now!!!
Every horny young man’s dream will be employment at an esthetics salon.
Went to a Hooters in Florida recently. Several male servers were employed there, however they all were of the mincing kind, their loafers barely touched the floor.
A world where Hooters doesn’t or can’t discriminate is a world I don’t want to live in!!
WTF – It may be worse than what you’re thinking. They can still require a C cup minimum, and they can find men who meet that requirement. Men that will have to turn sideways to walk through the doors, but they’ll meet the bust requirement.
Don’t visualize. Especially don’t visual one of these men in the server’s standard tight T-shirt.
I just threw up in my mouth a bit C LOL
So did Mr. Zhu get his Weiwei slapped or did they just let him off with a warning?
How many days of productive private sector labour/enterprise did it take to supply the tax revenue wasted on this perverse government clown show?
Ontario taxpayers are obviously expected to have their wealth redistributed, their businesses threatened/ruined and their reputations ruined by these insane parodies of justice – OHRC is a cruel farce, a perversion of justice and those who delusionally presume to sit in judgement of us in its kangaroo PC theaters are demonstrably not our moral nor intellectual superiors.
Things like this are just grinding the Wynn-PC-Prog dystopia Ontario has become into the faces of those it robs to act out its PC perversity. If absurd pseudo-justice like this becomes common political posture with no backlash, productive people like Mr. Zhu will flee this PC asylulm and Ontario will become fly-over country for much needed small business ven cap. These events are outward signs of government insanity.
Ven cap enterprise is risky enough without an insane PC regime increasing the likelihood of bankruptcy on legal fees to stay free of its predatory PC star chambers. Zero complainant liability and $25,000 awards only increases this madness. OHRT should not have the right to impose awards over $1000. That would remove the parasitic and predatory nature of the current PC dissent witch hunt system. Take this back to the common claims courts where are rights are intact.
Prediction for 2015 – Ontario’s zombie horde gets voter’s remorse as Onterio’s 1st fully mad government gets the lowest lender ratings from S&P/Moodys in the province’s history and the social safety net/pensions etc. are raided to return to prime credit ratings.
Harper could do his part by cutting this insane government off from equilization bail outs – hell they’d just waste the money running macabre Political theatrics like this one, rather than attend to the 300 billion debt strangling the province.
State-sponsored shake-down.
Exactly.
It needs to be said: Who a private business hires is no concern of the state.
“…Things like this are just grinding the Wynn-PC-Prog dystopia …”
Aye, indeed. And the PC means Progressive Conservative too. There isn’t one in the current crop of lily-livered leadership hopefuls who will have the guts to even mention the words Human Rights Commission…let alone suggest getting rid of it.
But then again, why should they bother? A public that is more concerned about J-Lo’s arse than the economic ruin of the province and the erosion of property rights and civil liberties deserves to lose everything of value.
