'It has just shattered me. I am broken'
Canada is now fining its citizens for offending people of the Islamic faith.
John Alabi, 53, is a 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.

“It has just shattered me. I am I don’t have the money. I work very hard. If they go into my bank account right now, I don’t have $12,000 there,” says Alabi, who lost thousands of dollars in legal fees and time off work.
“It has just shattered me. I am broken. I am broken.”
Cripes. They get us coming and going.
But Pope Francis said the Koran is just like the Bible. But Obama said Islam and Christianity worship the same God. But Democrats said Islam is loving and tolerant.
Somebody needs to “dox” the members of that phony “rights” commission.
Addresses, pets’ names, kids’ names, schools, employment, phone numbers. Everything.
Canada is going down the scrapper with much of Europe. Too bad.
“John Alabi, 53, is a Christian...”
Strike One.
“... and a landlord...”
Strike Twoooooo
“... who lives in the Toronto...”
Steeeerikkeee Threeeeeee.
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another ..
It shattered him. I would be curious to know which way he votes.
No worries, John, you won’t be able to afford shoes to remove for the rest of your life. /s
Islam has learned well from the Democrats who sue everyone. One could say Islam and the Left Wing are fighting the same enemy: Human Kind
Almost enough to make you not want to rent to any Muslims.
I wonder if we could hold a fundraiser for this guy, raise $120,000 just to give huge middle finger to that government. It’s happening here as well though isn’t it. The Christian bakers who were fined in the 6 digits for not baking a dyke cake.
He needs to put on a dress, claim he has morphed into a girl, and throw himself at the mercy of that nutcase prime minister up in Snowflake-land.
Wow, I spoke too soon although it looks like he isn’t getting that much.......

I’d tell the court to blow me.
This disgusting story and the payment of $10,000,000 to a terrorist who killed a US Army medic should put all things Canadian on our permanent boycott list. Their ugly attitude toward Christians and Americans cannot be ignored.
LOL. My brother in law wiped dog shit off his shoes on a tenants prayer rug in an papartment he rented in Chicago.
“But Pope Francis said the Koran is just like the Bible ...”
And that statement shows just how very little the Pope knows about Islam - Christians have one (1) book to show them the way. Islam has five (5). Christians are free to interpret what they read. Muslims are not; the must rely on the Sunnahs and Hadiths (Talibari, Muslim, Isaq, and Bukhari) to understand what the suras of the koran mean which are valid and which are invalid according to Mohammad.
Else, the Pope knows and is deliberately attempting to deceive.
