    This is an outrage and goes against the Canadian "Charter of Rights" which at it's core is supposed to protect the people's religious liberty.

    Let the accreditation go. Paul lost his accreditation when He was baptized.

    Is it not like the states in which there is a separate bar exam one can take to be licensed?

    There are lawyers who never went to law school, but passed the bar exam(s).
