Human rights tribunal dismisses nude Stephen Harper painting complaint

A complaint filed over a painting of Prime Minister Stephen Harper in the buff has been dismissed.

The Ontario Human Rights Tribunal has ruled it had no jurisdiction to hear the complaint lodged against the Kingston Frontenac Public Library for displaying the unauthorized nude depiction of Harper.

Curtis Stewart of St. Albert, Alta., had made the application last May, arguing his rights were infringed when the library chose to display the risque painting as part of a local art show.

The tribunal notified Stewart of its decision on June 19, and gave him a month to respond.
