CHRC employee sends private investigator to harass my parents at their home (Ezra Levant)

...Well, maybe Vigna has calmed down. His threat to sue me was in April, and it's June now. Maybe he has finally found that serenity he sought.

Nope.

Now my parents tell me that Vigna has been harassing them at their home.

Vigna has been sending a private investigator to my parents' house again and again, demanding to see me. My parents, who are far more polite than I am, keep telling Vigna's hired tough guy that I don't live there anymore. I did when I was a teenager. But that was in 1990.

The last time Vigna's hired muscle came to my parents' house, he refused to leave. My parents said he had a Bluetooth phone device in his ear, and seemed to be taking instructions from someone -- Vigna himself? -- who told him not to go until he had found me. In the end, Vigna's enforcer must have lost his serenity, too, because he threw some papers down at my parents feet, and stormed off.

Classy.

My parents are much better behaved than I am. Had some neckless bouncer come on my property and refused to leave, I would have called the police. Not my sweet parents -- they're old fashioned, and believe in being courteous, even to bullies.

But Vigna the brave harasser of senior citizens should be careful. For while my parents are sweet on the outside, they are just as stubborn as I am, in their own way.

Alberta's human rights commission tried to shake down my father, Vigna-style, 25 years ago. Here's how my dad put it in a recent letter to the Calgary Herald:

Almost three decades ago, the AHRC came down heavily on my group radiology practice, demanding that we place a male X-ray technician at female fertility tests, as we had exercised "gender discrimination" by hiring a female technician.

Thousands of dollars in legal fees, seven months of letters of explanation of medical procedure, of female patient sensitivity, and AHRC visits, were of no avail in convincing the arbiters of hurt. Not only were they ignorant of medical procedures, patient vulnerability and sensitivity, as well as physician liability, they were intruding on physician-patient relationships.

Send the parents a video camera (Aiptek has HD resolution ones with very good performance for less than US$200) to record this bozo’s behavior for web distrubution.

I agree with the previous poster, get your parents a video camera or, better yet, a video surveillance system to surreptitiously record this thug in action. On an aside, your parents should call the police when this moron shows up at their house and they should also pursue a restraining order against him.

"...Too gay...."

I've always been happy when visiting Canada to go skiing or camping, canoing and fishing. ;-)

Weird. These thugs wouldn’t last thirty seconds on my property.
Where have all the armed-to-the-teeth psychopaths gone?

Okay, this elderly couple should at least have a couple of cranky Dobermans or something...

Agreed. I’d severely sanction this thug, too. And then I’d be looking to visit this schlemiel lawyer.

Is this experience talking ? Or just some sliver of gay knowledge you were born with?

I have been to Canada several times and enjoyed it. I was in Ottawa doing business with the Ministry of Defense. They all seemed very normal to me. They generally disliked the leftists in their government too.

that is an absolutely incredible story.

That can’t possibly be legal.

Thanks- I just saw this outrage and posted the article on Free Dominion.

Fire

All

And then, start criminal investigations on every man-jack connected with these Stasi-like pseudo courts.

It isn't. Anyone who tried that on a member of my family would be in for a world of hurt then thrown in jail.
