The publisher of Italian-Canadian newspaper Corriere Canadese has served Toronto councillor Kristyn Wong-Tam with libel notice ahead of a motion to pull City advertising from a publication that distributed “homophobic and transphobic articles about the Toronto Catholic District School Board, its Trustees and its LGBTQ2S+ students.”
The motion, to be considered Friday, says numerous articles by Corriere Canadese publisher Joe Volpe fail to comply with the City’s human rights policies. These include an article describing a LGBT peer support group on the TCDSB’s website as “pornographic” and another article headlined “Time to put sexualized virtue-signalling thugs in their place.”
I’m with Joe.
