Many argue the community convent that student must sign, to attended TWU, is discriminatory against Gays.
Yet homosexual are not banned from enrolling in Trinity. The covenant forbids sexual relations outside of marriage between a man and a women. This effects common law couples, dating couples, singles, and promiscuous people. They are not banning you for holding different beliefs, being gay or changing your mind about Christianity. The convent demand that all students, straight or gay, atheist or christian, must abide by it.
Also Law students from the States that attended schools with a similar covenant will be able to practice law in BC. How is it not discrimination to allow some people who hold similar beliefs from practicing law while not allowing others based on those beliefs?
Trinity's covenant.

Like any university, TWU has a code of conduct that students must abide by while they attend. Students sign the agreement voluntarily. If students don't like it they can go to another school.
TWU is teaching the approved government curriculum for law.
There was a similar case in 2001 where the BC teacher union tried to argue that graduates of TWU would discriminate against non-christian and homosexual students and staff. The Supreme court ruled in favor of TWU and there has not been a single case of discrimination by TWU graduates.
