Shorter Star Phoenix:

In order to prove that we properly value human rights, we need to make it prohibitively expensive for anybody to enforce them.

Update: Needless to say, the National Post loves the idea of scrapping the Human Rights Tribunal - but precisely because it'll force victims of discrimination to pay far more than most potential claims would be worth in order to get their complaints heard by anybody who can make a binding order.
