Christian slapped with $12,000 ‘Shariah fine’ for not removing shoes
Canada is now fining its citizens for offending people of the Islamic faith.
John Alabi, 53, is a Black Christian and a landlord who lives in the Toronto area and is being ordered to pay a fine of $12,000 by the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal because he failed to remove his shoes when he entered the apartment he was renting to a Muslim couple.
His crime? Religious discrimination, according to the tribunal.
The tenants were planning to move out of his rental home, and he says he gave the couple the required 24-hours notice that he would be showing the apartment to another tenant.
They told him not to come while they were praying, and to text first. He agreed. But when they stopped answering his text messages, he showed the apartment.
The Muslim tenants waited eight months before filing their grievance with the human rights tribunal, where they receive free representation, the Toronto Sun reported. The couple even searched his Facebook page and found a joke they considered offensive and used to bolster their case. The tribunal agreed he harassed them and failed in his duty to accommodate their religious needs – and awarded them $6,000 each – plus interest.
Alabi says he does not have the money to pay the fine and doesn’t know what he’s going to do.
“What about my rights?” asks the father of three, who has since sold the house. “What about my rights to show my place so I could rent it and put food on the table for my family?

Oh I thought you just included his race as an attempt to make it relevant to this thread. Makes even less sense now.

Ever noticed that the vast majority of people neither complain or protest when their "segregated class" is offended. Squeaky wheel gets the grease. The complainers are playing the majority as fools.

I would suspect being a part of a majority gives re-enforcement to some sense of power and thus any complaints are mostly ignored as just spoiled children or "squeaky wheels."

As a child my sister used similar tactics to get her way. If she screamed I was always to blame. Boom, judged and sentenced.
