Forced to share room with a tranny in Toronto shelter, sex abuse victim files human rights complaint
National Post ^ | Aug. 2, 2018 | Joseph Brean

A woman has filed a human rights complaint against a Toronto shelter for female recovering addicts, claiming staff forced her to share a small double room with a pre-operative male-to-female transgender person.

The formal complaint against the Jean Tweed Centre, which runs Palmerston House, followed Kristi Hanna’s efforts to inquire about her own legal rights in this unusual situation, only to be told by Ontario’s Human Rights Legal Support Centre that, by describing her new roommate as a “man,” Hanna was the one engaged in illegal discrimination.

Hanna, 37, is a former paramedic who has lately worked in the service industry, and has been struggling with the lingering effects of sexual abuse and resulting problems with addiction to alcohol and cocaine. She described herself as an “active ally in the LGBTQ community,” but said this conflict has left her feeling as if vulnerable women are unable to voice their own gender-based rights for fear of violating someone else’s.

“It’s affecting everyone in the house. This can completely ruin your recovery, let alone your safety, let alone your life,” Hanna said in an interview.

She only spent two nights in the room with this person, constantly looking over to make sure she was still in bed, before taking an indefinite leave from the shelter. Hanna had lived at the central Toronto facility in an old Victorian house for seven months, but since last week has been staying with friends on couches, as a “transient,” she said. “Those two nights were hell for me.”

In her formal complaint to the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario, Hanna alleges the shelter “admitted a male bodied transgender into the safety of my home, bedroom and safe spaces.” She claims this has caused her stress, anxiety, rape flashbacks, symptoms of PTSD, and sleep deprivation.

I like it too, but it’s a too-perfect shot to believe it’s not photoshopped. Beauty and the beast.

"A fascinating conundrum for libtards. Which of the two, the female abuse survivor or the pre-op tranny, has a higher standing and a more worthy grievance on the sacred Hierarchical Totem Pole of Libtard Victimhood, and is thus more deserving of support and advocacy?"

It's not a conundrum. The left will always issue default judgment to the most deviant from traditional western culture and morality. Communists are all about overthrowing tradition and the, "old order." In this case, the deranged male who thinks he is a woman is the hands down winner over an actual woman struggling to overcome a history of abuse and addiction.

Sounds like Canada has gone a bit farther down the toilet than we have.But then it's easy to imagine this happening in San Francisco or Boston.

That woman there doesn’t understan, that there man is actually a woman in a mans body and that he is trying to reeeee-arrrange his-self. this woman needs to understand that by supporting lesbians and gays and transexuals and the like.., that as our guest here, she needs to accept that man as just another woman.

This just proves once again that the leftist view of “how things should be” in unviable and self-defeating. Reality is a b*tch.

Forced to share a room with a tranny? Was it a Chrysler 727-A Torqueflite transmission?

The real war on real women is being waged by progressives (cultural Marxists).

That is just a screen shot. If you watch the video you can see it.

Then, it’s a pretty incredible framing of the picture!

My guess is the photographer knew the situation and was waiting for TrigglyPuff to explode. To capture the pretty girl with the perfect look on her face at that moment takes a bit of coordination.

Otherwise it’s blind luck. Thanks for posting the vid.
