“We feel that suspending Charter rights – regardless of the sector of workers or subset of children needs to be considered in the court of law,” Lori Johb, the SFL president, said. “Students and workers alike deserve to know how this law could impact them now and into the future.” On Feb. 16, Court of King’s Bench Justice Michael Megaw announced his decision to allow the UR Pride Centre for Sexuality and Gender Diversity to continue its constitutional challenge against the Saskatchewan government’s pronoun consent law.
