Nice write-up in your local paper.
Sorry about your experience in the store. At least you didn't get turned down for a special cake.
Can the shopkeeper be cited for discrimination?

"Disobedience in the eyes of any one who has read history is man's original virtue. "—Oscar Wilde.
If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing as war. If the Government is inefficient, top-heavy, and tax-mad, better it is all those than that people worry over it. Peace, Montag.

Yes, in Canada, it is not legal what she did.

Hi Lesley and Michaela!
It seems that the store owner has got away with it though. I guess the newspaper could not name it, but I hope the shopkeeper is feeling very bad about their ignorance now. Anyway Lesley, yet again you are famous!!!

It's a small enough town, Celia, people talk. And I am actually fairly well known. The store won't be able to hide behind anonymity.

Hi Lesley!
Well that's good to hear. I hope they find fewer people going there or that they apologise without reserve. It was a good article though, I enjoyed reading it. Celia xx
