On June 30, 1997, Owens placed the ad in the StarPhoenix to coincide with Gay Pride Week. His intention, as a committed Christian, was to draw people’s attention to the Biblical teachings on homosexuality. The ad gave four Bible passages from Romans, Leviticus, and First Corinthians, which condemn homosexuality. The list was followed by a mathematical equal sign, which was followed by two stick-figure men holding hands. This drawing was contained within the universal prohibition symbol (circle with a slash across it). Viewed in its entirety, the purpose of the ad was to indicate that the Bible says no to homosexual behavior.

That’s pretty rotten if you ask me. Deserving of a lawsuit? - don’t know, don’t care, I have no sympathy for the guy.

The government prosecuted him.

And yes, it was in Canada, not the US.
Just pointing out that Prager’s worry is not a ridiculous straw man.
