La Cour supr\u00eame du Canada a rendu sa d\u00e9cision en Ward c. Commission des droits de la personne et des droits de la jeunesse<\/em><\/a>. La d\u00e9cision majoritaire affirme l'importance fondamentale de la libert\u00e9 d'expression et le principe selon lequel dans une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9mocratique, il n'y a pas de droit \u00e0 ne pas \u00eatre offens\u00e9. L'ACLC est soulag\u00e9e de voir qu'une majorit\u00e9 de la Cour a reconnu la n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 de s'assurer que les limites \u00e0 l'expression sont d\u00e9finies en termes \u00e9troits et pr\u00e9cis. La d\u00e9cision \u00e9tablit \u00e9galement une approche des all\u00e9gations de discrimination en vertu de la Charte des droits et libert\u00e9s de la personne du Qu\u00e9bec qui prend en compte la libert\u00e9 d'expression \u00e0 un stade pr\u00e9coce et ne la traite pas comme une simple d\u00e9fense contre des all\u00e9gations par ailleurs valides.<\/p>\n

Fond<\/span><\/h3>\n

L'affaire Ward est centr\u00e9e sur un com\u00e9dien qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois, Mike Ward, et Jeremy Gabriel. Gabriel a le syndrome de Treacher Collins; il est n\u00e9 sourd et avec des malformations faciales et s'est fait conna\u00eetre au Qu\u00e9bec apr\u00e8s avoir chant\u00e9 pour des personnalit\u00e9s publiques, dont le pape. Gabriel a fait l'objet de quelques blagues que Ward avait dans une routine comique qui mettait l'accent sur des personnalit\u00e9s publiques qu\u00e9b\u00e9coises \u00ab\u00a0intouchables\u00a0\u00bb. Gabriel et sa m\u00e8re ont d\u00e9pos\u00e9 une plainte aupr\u00e8s de la Commission des droits de la personne et des droits de la jeunesse du Qu\u00e9bec, l'organisme provincial des droits de la personne qui traite g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement les plaintes de discrimination. La Commission a port\u00e9 l'affaire devant le tribunal des droits de la personne qui a conclu que les blagues de Ward \u00e9taient discriminatoires et violaient le droit de Gabriel \u00e0 la dignit\u00e9 d'une mani\u00e8re qui n'\u00e9tait pas justifi\u00e9e. Gabriel a re\u00e7u des dommages-int\u00e9r\u00eats de $35 000,00, qui comprenaient une composante de dommages punitifs. Sa m\u00e8re a re\u00e7u $7000.00 en dommages et int\u00e9r\u00eats.<\/p>\n

Une majorit\u00e9 de la Cour d'appel du Qu\u00e9bec a largement confirm\u00e9 la d\u00e9cision du Tribunal, mais a renvers\u00e9 la d\u00e9cision concernant sa m\u00e8re, concluant qu'elle n'\u00e9tait pas l'objet de discrimination. Un juge dissident aurait infirm\u00e9 la d\u00e9cision du Tribunal, concluant \u00e0 l'absence de discrimination.<\/p>\n

D\u00e9cision de la Cour supr\u00eame du Canada<\/span><\/h3>\n

Une majorit\u00e9 de cinq juges de la Cour supr\u00eame a accueilli l'appel, estimant qu'il n'y avait pas eu de discrimination dans cette affaire. L'affaire a \u00e9t\u00e9 consid\u00e9r\u00e9e par certains comme un conflit entre la libert\u00e9 d'expression et le droit \u00e0 la dignit\u00e9, mais cela simplifie \u00e9videmment \u00e0 l'exc\u00e8s les probl\u00e8mes. Les L'ACLC est intervenue dans l'affaire<\/a> parce que les d\u00e9cisions ci-dessous n'ont pas accord\u00e9 suffisamment d'attention au r\u00f4le de la libert\u00e9 d'expression dans la compr\u00e9hension de l'\u00e9tendue et de la profondeur des autres droits et recours prot\u00e9g\u00e9s par des documents constitutionnels et quasi constitutionnels. La majorit\u00e9 dans cette affaire a affirm\u00e9 que \u00ab\u00a0les limites \u00e0 la libert\u00e9 d'expression sont justifi\u00e9es lorsque, dans un contexte donn\u00e9, il existe des motifs s\u00e9rieux de craindre un pr\u00e9judice suffisamment pr\u00e9cis et ne pouvant \u00eatre \u00e9vit\u00e9s par le discernement et le jugement critique du public\u00a0\u00bb. En l'esp\u00e8ce, la port\u00e9e du droit \u00e0 la dignit\u00e9 de M. Gabriel devait \u00eatre d\u00e9termin\u00e9e en tenant compte de la large protection de la libert\u00e9 d'expression dans notre syst\u00e8me constitutionnel.<\/p>\n

Il est d\u00e9concertant que les quatre juges dissidents dans l'affaire aient trouv\u00e9 des propos tenus dans le contexte d'une com\u00e9die comme discriminatoires et dignes de dommages-int\u00e9r\u00eats. Comme le note la majorit\u00e9, cette affaire aurait pu donner lieu \u00e0 une action en diffamation, mais n'aurait pas d\u00fb faire l'objet d'une conclusion de discrimination par le tribunal des droits de la personne.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t
