‘Ridiculous’: Legal fight over Ontario town’s refusal to mark Pride month ongoing | Globalnews.ca
62% Informative
The Township of Emo , Ontario , has been locked in a human rights and legal battle over Pride month .
The town's refusal to proclaim Pride month has made it a front line in the battle for LGBTQ+ rights.
A human rights tribunal ruled last November that Mayor Harold McQuaker discriminated against the group.
Emo and the township are now challenging the tribunal’s ruling with an application for a judicial review of the decision.
Dunn said the cost of the town’s legal battle over Pride month was around $40,000 by the time he left council two years ago , and he thinks that could be well over $100,000 now.
“There is an inability to accept that he (the mayor) made a mistake, it's a failure of leadership," Dunn said.
