Today I found this lovely story through Little Green Footballs:
Bruce Gilmour filed the complaint after a cab driver from North Shore Taxi refused to let his guide dog into the cab in January of this year. Gilmour, who says it's not the first time he's been refused service by a taxicab, is complaining that North Shore taxi discriminated against him on the basis of physical disability.
But the taxi driver, Behzad Saidy, is arguing his Muslim religious beliefs will not allow him to take dogs in his taxi, because Muslims can't associate with dogs.
There is a chance that in this case political correctness will be used agaimst islamists.
I have cousins in Vancouver. I am sure they will be "thrilled" to hear about this.
