Moncton is in the Bible belt. The ABC - Atlantic Baptist College is located there. Even if they discriminate they won't run out of customers. HOWEVER, bottom line - if it's not okay to say "we won't serve Jews/blacks/Muslims/women/Indians/redheaded people/foreigners/French-speaking people/long-haired hippie-freaks", it's NOT okay to say you won't serve homosexuals. And besides - it's against the law here.
I hope somebody sues the crap out of the store owner. I live here, and I want my rights - entrenched in our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and recognized by the Supreme Court of Canada, to be respected. MY God loves me just the way She made me thankyouverymuch.
