Description

November 16 Smeaton, Sask. The Nipawin District School Board launched an appeal of the reinstatement of teacher Donald Jones, who had been dismissed by the board after admitting that he had homosexual relations with two men with their consent. The appeal was dismissed by Justice A.L. Sirois of the Saskatchewan Court of Queen's Bench on November 30 because Jones had already resigned from the position. The board appealed this decision to the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal, which rejected their appeal on June 11, 1980.
