FREE DOMINION: Human Rights Complaint Dropped Against Canadian Conservative Website

LifeSiteNews.com:

The human rights complaint that accused the Canadian conservative web forum Free Dominion of "hate speech" has been dropped, Free Dominion co-founder and administrator Connie Fournier told LifeSiteNews.com today.

Fournier said that she and her husband, both of whom founded and run the website together, received a letter this afternoon, informing them that the complainant, Marie-Lines Gentes, requested the Canadian Human Rights Commission (CHRC) to drop the complaint.

Interestingly enough, said Fournier, the letter also indicated that the complainant had initially asked the CHRC to drop the complaint on July 17, before Free Dominion ever even heard about the complaint, and asked that the complaint be dropped a second time on July 23. When Fournier spoke to the CHRC on July 19, however, several days after Gentes first asked the complaint to be dropped, the CHRC made no mention of that fact, leaving Free Dominion in the dark until today. Free Dominion's lawyer will be investigating this particular issue.
