As a dad of two girls and someone who hates bullies who pick on the seemingly vulnerable, I am pleased to see this reporter call out these idiots.

One of these guys, Shawn Simoes, worked for Hydro One, and will apparently be terminated. Another apparently is close to being identified. I applaud Hydro One, MLSE, TPS (says could be charged with assault and mischief) and Laurier University's stance on the issue.
There will be those who say this is overkill, that people shouldn't lose their jobs over mysogynistic behaviour off company time. What idiots like this forget is with the very narrow exception of what's specified in the Charter, you can be fired by your employer for any reason whatsoever. So, why give your employer a golden chance like this?
So, I'd like to think this will check most idiots from doing this in Toronto or much of Canada. In the USA, where this is rampant, I imagine the female reporters may too start to call out these fools.
