Just in case people aren't aware of what the pool party in question was about:
- It was an event for younger people.
- For LGBTQ2S+ and their allies
- It was restricted to people ages 12-24
- Dress Code was the lower body private areas had to be covered.
- Parents and guardians were not permitted as this was meant as an LGBTQ2S+ safe space
- This event was not organized by Yaniv, it was promoted by Janiv
- The event was cancelled a couple days before because the organizers didn't believe they could offer a safe space given public backlash at the time
Other things of interest:
- When I called the pool a few days earlier for some specifics I also learned that the pool staff were exempt from the age restriction and that the event was being supervised by adult staff. The event was being blocked off from viewing to the general public. I asked if someone over 30 from the general public could attend, that was a No. I didn't mention Yaniv when I asked that.
- Janiv's plan for a pool party was deferred by city council until later in the year. Yaniv's idea for a pool party is not the same event that was suppose to run on July 10th. It is incorrect to say Yaniv was actually trying to make it "all ages no parents" so he could attend. Yaniv's pool party idea and the July 10th event were not the same so things are being conflated.
- Yaniv's own pool party didn't say it was open to all ages, but in the application it was only stated the lower bound on age was 12.
- Langley had held similar swim events for youth prior to this
For anyone who lives outside of Canada may be curious to understand:
- Adult women can bare their breasts in public in BC and Ontario if not done so for a sexual purpose.
- In BC and Ontario provincial courts have found the public decency laws in Canada's criminal code to be pretty much unenforceable because of subjectivity.
- BC courts have specifically ruled that bans on topless swimming are unconstitutional
- The Crown in the other provinces generally do not pursue indecency charges for public nudity that isn't overtly sexualized because it is pretty much assumed the finding of the courts in BC and Ontario would be similar to those in their province if it reached a Superior Court.
- Nudity doesn't imply something is sexual
Safe space for pedophiles maybe...
Anyway that was a lot of text saying nothing. Why do you feel the need to defend yaniv and constantly bitch about Donald?
We get it. You don't like Donald, and in a round about way you keep defending Yaniv. Maybe you should just have a threeway with both of them?
