B.C. Human Rights Tribunal as a psychotherapist's couch
Now Khurrum Awan -- Toronto resident; non-party; non-expert; who will soon take up employment with Faisal Joseph's own firm -- is talking about a conversation he had with some other Toronto lawyer about the Maclean's article.
Forget the hearsay evidence that flows like a river through this kangaroo court -- Awan is telling us about some other lawyer's "shock" at the Maclean's article. Forget the jurisdictional issues -- what is a Toronto grievor doing here, other than forum-shopping, because the Ontario HRC couldn't hear his case, despite their lust to do so; forget his first-year-political science earnest Chomksy-isms.
Forget all the law (the Tribunal certainly has.)
This isn't about law.
This is about Khurrum Awan wanting a great, big psychotherapist's couch to bitch on. A big, tax-funded therapist's couch, where we all have to listen to him bitch about an article he didn't like -- and where the eager "healers" of the BCHRT have the power to fine Maclean's, and order them to make recompense.
I think that many men would be embarrassed to utter in public such a weak-kneed whine. But not Elmasry's young pupil.
