The human right to bring a fake seeing eye dog into a condo

By Ezra Levant on June 1, 2008 1:14 AM | | |

Trevor Jones wanted to buy a townhouse on Vancouver Vancouver Island. But they had a restriction against pets exceeding 15 kg. That ruled out Jones's Labrador retriever, Chloe.

Jones claimed that he was going blind, and that the condo board was discriminating against him. He took the condo board to the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal. They agreed with him.

Trouble is, Chloe isn't a seeing eye dog.

So what, said the BCHRT. Ka-ching -- $12,000 for Jones's hurt feelings.

Mark Steyn is a goner.
