CANADA YOGA SPORTS FEDERATION
Canada Yoga’s mission is to promote the practice of yoga as a means to improve the physical health and mental well-being of people of all ages and fitness levels, and to advance yoga asana as a sport.
We understand there is a large, coordinated online attack against Eva Chipiuk with respect to the Boss is Back event.
Eva Chipiuk had nothing to do with this event. This targeted attack on her character and her reputation is misinformed.
Dr. Adam Chipiuk
President - Canada Yoga Sports Federation
The Boss is Back event will be rescheduled due to a scheduling conflict. We thank all those that supported the event.
As for those who have sought to harass, shame, and defame the board of directors on Canada Yoga Sports Federation, be advised that your names and statements have been noted and Canada Yoga is assessing legal action.
The allegations suggesting that directors of Canada Yoga are complicit or condoning of criminal behaviour are demeaning and defamatory. Criminal matters ought to be left with police authorities and courts, not second rate journalists, Netflix and social media. Unfortunately, we live in a world where people believe social media is the judge, jury and executioner. This is wrong and adds to misinformation, harassment, and bullying.
Of note, the rights of a complainer do not trump the rights to privacy and a good reputation of those targeted. In other words, you cannot say what you want in the name of free speech even if you think it’s in the public interest if you are defaming and harming the reputation of others. Your right to free speech ends when you harass and defame others.
On the internet, people may believe there are no consequences to their actions. However, there are consequences to such actions and the board of directors is assessing their rights to legal and criminal action against these untruths.
