My tuppence worth :-
Clearly Levant is within his rights to publish what he published. Whether or not he should have done is up to his own conscience. However other people have the right to be offended and if there is an avenue for them to complain to they have the right to make use of that system.
It looks more to me as though the Human Rights Commision needs an overhaul in Canada (or perhaps Alberta not sure of the structure) because the first step in the process should be to see if there is a case to answer under Canadian law. If there is then it should be followed through the law courts, not through a quasi-official body. The cart is before the horse by the looks of it.
But as for the burning outrage? Well there are always test cases that provoke changes in bureacracy. This, hopefully for Canada, will be one of them.
