A Saskatchewan human rights tribunal has ordered a former Regina man to pay more than $17,000 to four people who accused him of inciting hatred against gays and lesbians.

The tribunal also ordered Bill Whatcott and his group, Christian Truth Activists not to distribute material that promotes hatred against people because of their sexual orientation.

The complaint had been filed by four people in 2002 after Bill Whatcott's group distributed pamphlets in Regina and Saskatoon that referred to gays as "sodomites" and called same-sex relationships "filthy".

1. It'd be nice if we could get the same thing here, but it ain't never gonna

happen--they'll cry free speech and freedom of religion.

So, we'll just have to have our elected leaders take a prinicpled stand against such people and call their bluff...oh, wait...elected...principled...sorry!
