Description

October 25 Gatineau, Qué. L'Association gaie de l'Ouest Québécois (AGOQ) was refused permission to rent premises to be used as an office and centre. The Québec Human Rights Commission was informed of this illegal action, but was ineffective in pursuing it. On November 7, 1978, another member of AGOQ was successful in leasing the same space by stating that the group he represented was a "social agency" but the landlord later illegally locked them out.
