Former Chilliwack school trustee Barry Neufeld ordered to pay $750K for violating Human Rights Code

Former Chilliwack school trustee Barry Neufeld has been ordered to pay $750,000 by the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal for violating the Human Rights Code with “heated public speech” exposing LGBTQ people to hatred or contempt. The tribunal issued its final decision this week, issuing two sets of costs orders in the matter of the BCTF (on behalf of) the Chilliwack Teachers’ Association v. Neufeld, one ordering the payment of $750,000 in costs to the CTA, and a concurrent order of $10,000 for improper conduct during the lengthy process.
