Gender Segregation Upheld: Hilarity Ensues
June 30, 2007 · By Aaron Unruh
Female non-golfers everywhere remain outraged:
The Supreme Court of Canada has rejected an appeal from a group of women who complained to a human rights tribunal about a Vancouver golf club’s decision to ban women from one of three lounges.
More substantively, the SCC has refused to hear this appeal after the B.C. Court of Appeal overturned the ruling of the provincial human rights tribunal. When even the Supreme Court thinks you’re taking judicial activism too far, you may have a problem.
More from the BC human rights tribunal: Men-only lounges, bad. But women-only fitness clubs, fantastic!
