Complaints brought forward by trans activist Jessica Yaniv have been deferred for six months by the BC Human Rights Tribunal for her failure to pay costs from previous unsuccessful complaints against three beauty salons. According to the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, Yaniv failed to pay $6,000 in costs to beauty salons she accused of discrimination for refusing to wax her genitalia. Yaniv filed the complaints in 2018 and the tribunal dismissed them in 2019. The salon, She Point Beauty Studio in Surrey, B.C., says it was approached by Yaniv seeking services in August of last year, like Brazilian bikini waxing and leg waxing. But due to her refusal to pay the costs from the previous complaints, the tribunal has deferred these new complaints until the costs are paid, or for six months.
