Interesting site.
As I think I managed to say before (we were driven off track), I don't take issue with private groups such as the Boy Scouts having a policy against minority groups. However, when those private groups make use of public money they had better be ready to deal with inclusive policy.
In the case of a private school not allowing a gay couple to attend a prom, while I can't see what the fuss is all about, it is that student's right to go to another school. When that school is a public school, they have no right to ban the gay couple.
As I brought up before, the Bill of Rights and our Charter of Rights and Freedoms is in place to prevent discrimination. As I read it, in the public forum... this would include places of employment as well.
These rights are in the constitution and therefore can be contested in a court of law much as the same sex marriage issue that happened here in Ontario.
