on C2C Journal resurfaced in July after several community members expressed their concerns to the NCCM. Independent news outlet The Progress Report also wrote about the comments in July.In the review, May called the religion “militaristic” in nature.
Since then, the NCCM said it tried to work with May multiple times to attempt to reconcile and build trust with Muslim communities. When May didn’t follow up as agreed, it prompted the NCCM to call for his resignation.May said he does not hold anti-Islamic views, and the editors of the book review said the essay makes it clear the offending comments were the views of the book author and not May.
“My client, the first openly gay chief of the Alberta Human Rights Commission, will not be resigning his position,” Marshall said in an emailed statement to Global News. “My client has been targeted by individuals and groups who are politically motivated, and are peddling a misleading interpretation of a book review he wrote 13 years ago.”
Why should he? And his position should not be rescinded. If thats all it takes. Then ever politician at least in Canada should resign or quit. Every single one of them have lied, been dishonest. Criticized other nationalities in some way or form, like black face, for example.
