This group (SPAG) has published a brief entitled "Rights and Realities: Discrimination and the Gay Women and Men of British Columbia." The brief investigates the prospect of extending legislative protection to include the human rights of gay women and men in B.C. Three of the most important forms of discrimination are discussed and identified: employment discrimination, physical abuse and the denial of access to accommodation and services.
