Balancing Human Rights and Religious Freedom
June 20, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
FreeA Toronto woman filed a human rights complaint in 2012, after a barber declined to cut her hair, arguing his religion prevents him from touching a woman outside his family. As Canada’s diversity grows, which rights trump others?
Columnist Michael Coren had a falling out with his church over LGBT rights. He and human rights lawyer Andrew Carvajal discuss the delicate balance between human rights and religious freedom.
