The BC Human Rights Tribunal has ordered former Chilliwack school trustee Barry Neufeld to pay $750K in a long standing hate speech complaint. Neufeld has been ordered to compensate LGBTQ+ teachers for his public attacks on gender-identity education - something which the Tribunal says created a ‘poisoned’ work environment. The Chilliwack Teachers’ Association, along with the BCTF, filed the complaint back in 2017.
