Faisal Joseph rebuts McConchie -- or tries, at least
It's clear that the complainants have given little or no thought to the B.C. jurisdiction. They're shoe-horning their boilerplate whine into this province's tribunal, because it had easy access, and they were shopping around, as legal tourists, for the easiest place to lay their bullying claim.
Joseph is saying that European "evidence" is relevant in B.C. because "Islamophobia" is a universal phenomenon.
Well, maybe. But you'd think that, with the better part of a year to prepare, that such a universal phenomenon could have been detected in this province.
I've rarely seen such sloppy lawyering.
But I don't think it matters.
While McConchie delicately gives his lecture about the law, Joseph gives a political whinge. Which approach do you think will win over Troika Tonie, the rewarder of bus drivers who have a "human rights" to 118 sick days?
