The director of a northern B.C. massage school must pay a Muslim man $12,000 after emailing him to confirm he was was not of the Islamic faith prior to his appointment.
She said she had no difficulty finding that the services were denied for reasons connected to his religion, place of origin, ancestry, and colour. However, that night the director of the school, Joyce Middleton, emailed Shahadat back to “certify” he was not of the Islamic faith, “which as you know has earned a bad reputation for raping and killing of infidels in Canada and elsewhere.”
Cousineau said Middleton feared Shahadat for the sole reason that she perceived him to be a Muslim man, and that through the tribunal process Middleton has continued to “reiterate the basis of those fears, which are rooted in invidious and harmful stereotypes about Muslim people.”
