So right now we're not in contravention of [the charter] because it's a provincial act.
That's not how our constitution works. Even private businesses can be sued for enacting practices on their patrons or employees that go against the spirit of the charter. The charter is more than just the bold text. The preamble confers many rights not enumerated in the charter.
