Document Summary

A young student committed suicide in ottawa yesterday. Said to be caused bullying about him being gay. Human rights trial hearing: bc case involving bed and breakfast refusing a room to a gay male couple; case began a couple years ago; claim is justified apparently on the basis of religious beliefs. 2 new judges appointed to supreme court of canada --> somewhat more conservative than the norm but there has been good coverage from the newspapers. We are beginning to see important changes in law. Lots of changes of whether changes in law and public policy make any difference at all. Mostly, these are public arguments and shift the people to making these institutional changes. If changes by law and public policy are not affected by change in public policy, people can argue that changes in law especially the inclusion of gender identity can help shape these attitudes.
