Lisa MacLeod is a young female politician who commutes to her job at Queen’s Park from Ottawa and leaves her husband, Joe, and four-year-old daughter, Victoria, at home. Mr. Justice Douglas Cunningham of Ontario Superior Court said this is a big distraction for the 34-year-old woman and as a result he felt he could not accept her evidence as corroboration of the Crown’s key witness in the recent high-profile, influence-peddling trial of Ottawa Mayor Larry O’Brien
OK fine, maybe her evidence was incidental to his ruling and what the judge meant to say was, “her testimony is not required so let’s not get her here” but in saying what he said, he has just revealed himself to be a sexist.
What a moron.
