Description
October 30 Ottawa Serge Tardif, who was stabbed five times by Pierre Jodoin on September 22, 1976, while cruising at Major's Hill Park, Nepean Point, was refused compensation by the Criminal Injuries Compensation Board (CICB). The CICB, established by the Ontario government in 1971 to compensate innocent victims of violent crime, ruled that Tardif had directly contributed to his stabbing by going into the bushes to have sex with Jodoin, a man he did not know, and denied his application. Jodoin was convicted of wounding and received a suspended sentence and three years' probation.
