Transgender woman's complaint against MLA dismissed
An N.W.T. human rights panel has dismissed a complaint by a transgender woman alleging discrimination by territorial cabinet minister Michael Miltenberger.
Woman said MLA asked her to leave school campus during governor general's visit
An N.W.T. human rights panel has dismissed a complaint by a transgender woman alleging discrimination by territorial cabinet minister Michael Miltenberger.
Gabrielle Landrie said Miltenberger asked her to leave the Aurora College campus when Gov. Gen. David Johnston was visiting Fort Smith in 2011.
Miltenberger admitted he told Landrie she "spooked" the governor general, but not that he asked her to leave.
Landrie said Miltenberger denied her access because she is a transgender woman.
The human rights panel said the evidence does not suggest Miltenberger's actions were the result of Landrie's gender identity.
