Coulter to file human rights complaint
Conservative pundit to go to Human Rights Commission over Ottawa treatment
Conservative firebrand Ann Coulter said she will file a complaint with the Canadian Human Rights Commission over the way she was treated by the University of Ottawa.
In a column posted on the website Townhall.com, Coulter said she hopes the "august" commission will find out whether the school has warned other speakers to watch their words the way she was warned this week.

The American political pundit, who is famous for her inflammatory statements about Muslims, liberals and gays, is in Canada on a three-stop university speaking tour and will be in Calgary tonight.
Before Coulter's speech Tuesday at the University of Ottawa, provost Francois Houle sent her an email reminding her about Canada's hate laws.
The speech was called off when a crowd of protesters showed up.
In her column, Coulter contended that it is Houle who is guilty of hate speech because his email sparked the protest and threats of physical violence against her.
