    Wow. You covered a bit of ground there. I have been following this story. I personally think it's important to have groups like this. The info we are fed by our publicly paid authorities is too often not the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

    Groups such as AVN have alerted us to some of the failings of our publicly paid officials in providing information which might be of concern to us. For that I commend them.

    As for harassment no-one has been able to provide any evidence that it occurred. No contact can be substantiated between the group and the couple. Medical records were apparently NOT requested by the group. An enquiry was made to the health unit regarding the validity of the diagnosis. Hardly harassment.

    I have read through both the complaint and the response (posted on their website). In my opinion the AVN made the complainant and the HCCC look a tad silly. As for taking the matter further, I couldn't imagine them committing their enquiry to judicial scrutiny.
