By a Canadian human rights commission:

Mr. Boissoin and [his organization] The Concerned Christian Coalition Inc. shall cease publishing in newspapers, by email, on the radio, in public speeches, or on the Internet, in future, disparaging remarks about gays and homosexuals.

So, I take it Leviticus is out then?
Not only that, he’s not allowed to make “disparaging” remarks against the guy who made the complaint against him and his witnesses even though he isn’t gay:

…prohibited from making disparaging remarks in the future about Dr. Lund or Dr. Lund’s witnesses relating to their involvement in this complaint..

And he has to write a letter of apology that is to be published in the local newspaper.
And he has to pay the guy who made the complaint $5,000 for “damages” even though the commission had determined that he suffered no damages.
I guess they don’t have free speech in Canada? This is what happens when you appoint bureaucrats to judge speech issues, they substitute their own views for the law.
