Canada obsessed with ‘faggot’ again: ‘Homophobic’ comments cost retired colonel $12,000

Sheesh! Man up, you faggots ****suckers!

The Quebec Human Rights Tribunal has ordered a Montreal man to pay his gay neighbours $12,000 for allegedly subjecting them to “homophobic comments,” death threats and invitations to fight, even though he was acquitted of the charges in a court of law nearly five years ago. (…)

The case against Mr. Lusk, a retired lieutenant colonel of the Canadian Forces, stems from an April 2004, incident in which [gay dude] Mr. Thibault is alleged to have driven recklessly down their street in the Montreal suburb of Pointe Claire while neighbourhood children, including Mr. Lusk’s son, were playing road hockey.

A witness testified that Mr. Thibault had run a stop sign and driven at high speed toward one of the kids, nearly hitting the child. The witness testified that two years earlier, Mr. Thibault had inadvertently squashed a tennis ball the children were playing with, prompting one of the children to yell “f—ing fag,” a comment that encouraged others to join in a “chorus of fag.” (…)

Messrs. Wouters and Thibault, who were the first gay male couple in Quebec to formalize their union under the province’s civil union law, have a history of pursuing lawsuits and complaints against neighbours whom they believe harbour homophobic attitudes.
