A Canadian beauty pageant is urging Ontario’s human rights court to dismiss a longstanding complaint brought against it by Jessica Simpson, a transgender individual and activist.

According to a July 11 post from the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), lawyers for Canada Galaxy Pageants (CGP) recently contacted the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario asking that Simpson’s 2019 complaint against it be dismissed.
