The former head of the Alberta New Democrats’ membership organization for people with disabilities has filed a human rights complaint against the party for discrimination. Justin Reinke, the former co-chair of the NDP’s disability caucus, is alleging he was discriminated against and wrongfully dismissed from his role in retaliation for speaking out against mistreatment. He claimed “an immense amount of ableism” exists in the party. The NDP have said that Reinke was in violation of the party’s anti-harassment policy.
