This guy would like to turn away disabled people in favor of Christians, if he can figure out how to legally do it.
Any Christian-only housing would turn away disabled people in favor of Christians, just like 45+ condos turn away disabled people in favor of people over 45.
These situations don't make the news because of course everyone understands that if a building's rules specify a certain kind of tenant (Christian, 45+), then people who don't meet that criteria don't get in.
It seems its only when Muslims do what everyone else does that there are news stories and condemnation.

Are the others gov't subsidized, if so it should not be allowed. Considering that the building the disabled man was turned away from, is subsidized housing, it should never be okay. Gov't should never condone discrimination should they.

According to the article, yes they are.
QuoteThe City’s mandate policy allows social housing providers to restrict their housing to individuals belonging to an identifiable ethnic or religious group if specific conditions are met,” says a statement provided by city spokesperson John Gosgnach.
There are eight such buildings in Toronto, catering to Muslims, Macedonians, Germans and seniors who are Christian, Chinese, Greek, Hungarian or Lithuanian.
So come on, let's see your status update about those nasty Lithuanians, who would disallow a disabled non-Lithuanian from accessing their services.

Spain is now having trouble coping with this influx

By 2040, Muslims will replace Jews as the nation’s second-largest religious group after Christians. And by 2050, the U.S. Muslim population is projected to reach 8.1 million, or 2.1% of the nation’s total population — nearly twice the share of today.
When we first conducted a study of Muslim Americans in 2007, we estimated that there were 2.35 million Muslims of all ages (including 1.5 million adults) in the U.S. By 2011, the number of Muslims had grown to 2.75 million (including 1.8 million adults).
Since then, the Muslim population has continued to grow at a rate of roughly 100,000 per year, driven both by higher fertility rates among Muslim Americans as well as the continued migration of Muslims to the U.S.

Here`s a good one, no more freedom of press in Europe, Canada next I suppose
European human rights chiefs have told the British press it must not report when terrorists are Muslim.
