I’ll take that bet
The next big Canadian Human Rights Commission Triumph will be….Polygamy.
It you think about it, it kind of follows logically. As the HRCs of Canada become more and more co-opted by Islamist interests, a process which is already in motion, it should all but be expected that sooner or later, a Muslim fellow will file a complaint against e.g. a provincial government for its failure to make a provision for him to either a) claim some tax benefit for his additional wives, or b) actually take an additional wife on Canadian soil.
And to be fair, I think (b) is the more likely option, since the Koran allows…what is it? As many as four wives?
Canada has kind of shot itself in the foot where polygamy is concerned, anyhow. All our hypothetical Muslim plaintiff need to is a) assert that it violates his religious rights to be limited to just one wife under Canadian law, and then b) argue that since Canada doesn’t restrict marriage based on the gender of the participants, restricting it based on the number of participants is illogical.
