I, Ashu M. G. Solo, filed the following:

1. Civil rights case against the City of Saskatoon (Mayor's Office) and Councillor Randy Donauer for prayer recitations at government organized events

2. Code of Conduct complaint against Mayor Don Atchison for potential online campaign advertising violations

3. Civil rights case against the City of Saskatoon (Saskatoon Transit Services) for promoting holidays from only one religion on city buses

4. Human rights complaint against the City of Saskatoon (Executive Committee) for retaliating against me by not reappointing me to the Cultural Diversity and Race Relations Committee and not appointing me to another civic committee or board

5. Human rights complaint against the City of Saskatoon (City Solicitor’s Office) for retaliating against me by trying to deprive me of my right to directly communicate with members of City Council and by telling employees of other City of Saskatoon departments to not talk to me

6. Human rights complaint against the City of Saskatoon (Cultural Diversity and Race Relations Office) and City of Saskatoon (Living in Harmony Ad Hoc Subcommittee of Cultural Diversity and Race Relations Committee) for retaliating against me by not considering my submissions to the Living in Harmony Contest

This site contains my media releases, some case documents, emails to City Council, etc.

I don't waste my time arguing with opponents.

The backlash makes me much more determined to fight against bigotry and shows the need for these civil rights cases, so I'll be filing more civil rights cases. You ain't seen nothing yet.

MEDIA ALERT: Cultural Diversity and Race Relations Committee reached no decision about my civil rights complaint regarding Christmas messages on buses

Dear Media:

At a public meeting today, the City of Saskatoon’s Cultural Diversity and Race Relations Committee continued its deliberations about my civil rights complaint regarding Christmas messages on buses.  

Representatives on the Cultural Diversity and Race Relations Committee had really different views about what to do regarding my complaint.  They couldn’t agree on a recommendation for the Executive Committee.  Therefore, the Cultural Diversity and Race Relations Committee decided to take no action on my complaint and simply send the information that they received to the Executive Committee, so the Executive Committee can make a more informed decision.  The Executive Committee is composed of the city councillors and mayor.

I made a presentation to the committee on January 10, 2013 about my civil rights complaint and sent them significant written material on it.

I might not have the majority of public support, but I’m still right in my position  and in taking on this issue.  He who is clad in the armor of a righteous cause can be mightier than all who oppose him.  I don’t care if people hate me for my civil rights complaints because I’m not trying to win a popularity contest.  The advancement of liberty is more important than my popularity. 

The only practical, fair, and nondiscriminatory policy is to not have messages for religious holidays on programmable signs of Saskatoon Transit buses.  If the Executive Committee doesn’t come up with a fair and nondiscriminatory policy, I will proceed with a civil rights complaint to the Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission. 

The racist and bigoted backlash for my prayer recitation complaint shows the need to make civil rights complaints like this and motivated me to make this Christmas message complaint.  The racist and bigoted backlash for this complaint motivates me to make more civil rights complaints in the future.  I will be filing more human rights complaints and will keep you informed.  You ain’t seen nothing yet.

Best regards,

Ashu M. G. Solo
