Nanaimo city council under tremendous pressure from the public has finally reversed its decision to ban Christian event at the Vancouver Island Conference Centre, expressing profound apologies and regret for the motion. Nanaimo city council created a social media firestorm earlier this month, after it opted to restrict certain events from the conference center.
The members of the public, including the Christian community, have raised concerns that the city’s move to protect one community group has violated the rights and freedoms of the citizens of Nanaimo.
Now would be a good idea for the city council of Nanaimo to take a course in civil liberties in Canada and study the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
