It just never ends, does it?

After the () acquitted Marc Lemire of violating section 13.1 of the Canadian Human Rights Act, the announced its intent to seek intervenor status in a then-pending judicial review of the Warman v. Lemire decision.

Evidently, that didn’t work out for them, so they’ve decided to file a formal court challenge to the Lemire decision (which, it should be re-iterated, their own associated tribunal handed down).
