29:11Now PlayingWhen Delwin Vriend’s legal battle lands in the Supreme Court of Canada, public debate turns ugly. And like it or not, Delwin and his legal team become the faces of the battle to protect sexual orientation; heroes to some, and villains to others.
Host Falen Johnson and journalist Clare Bonnyman bring us behind the scenes of the fateful SCC case Vriend v Alberta, and a ruling that breaks new ground for 2SLGBTQ+ people — but also breaks Delwin. Even after proclaiming 'Ha-ha, I win,' he faces hard choices about how to handle the legacy of the case in his life.
This episode is Part 2 of two.
