Vriend Versus Alberta Part 6: Pride Versus Prejudice
Sheila Greckol had delivered her opening arguments at the Supreme Court of Canada. It went well as she presented her submission in support of reading in sexual orientation as a protected ground in Alberta’s human rights legislation.
Now it was the Government of Alberta’s turn to defend its stance.
As the Province’s lead counsel took to the lecturn, the equality of countless Canadians hung in the balance.
Welcome to episode 6 of Vriend Versus Alberta.
