Swami Narayan temple sadhus landed at Pearson by British Airways and they asked through BA to CBSA that they get the immigration & customs done through men only. The CBSA obliged. The ladies of CBSA came to know of this and are complaining of discrimination through their union.
What next a fundamental Christian clergy will say he does want GAYS to check him out.

Sunny Leone a true Canadian DESI now back in India !.
Very funny incidence
I have no comments now ... but can`t stop saying one thing as I said in one earlier post.
When people have stupidity and not flexible in their practices at least at times .... it creates problems for everyone.
When a john doe calls oneself 'I am very religious person or I love so and so baba over my life or my unseen god is better than your unseen god' , John doe is also implying that he is sold to stupidity.
Recent example from personal life related to this topic:
Last month I went to pearson airport to see off my mother who needs wheel chair assistance, First It took us more than 40 minutes of wandering in the 6 level parking lot to get the parking space, we were getting late, I was wondering why the airport is crowded today. I reached inside Pearson and saw sea of people wearing white kurta pyjama , loud, they were everywhere, all Indian looking, speaking gujrati , it was difficult to 'walk' my mom through them to reach out to check in counter. after check in, I saw the place where my mom had to part with us, a babaji was being seen off, with Naras and byes byes , drama went on for 30 mins seems like babaji was also waiving from other side while standing in security line. He was actually waiving his thullu and smiling at his own luck that he found rich idiots paying for his foreign travels and making him rich back home.
Way back another wait of 30 mins because parking exit was clogged this time, hundreds of corollas with white duds in them..
I was appalled, seeing this stupidity , by my own people. It was day I was sad that my mom was going, but also the day I felt ashamed that my people were there spreading stupidity. What to do?. over to next baba visit !
and thats why I do not blame only one religious faction for being stupid and cocooned. It is everywhere.
My daughter was attending a 'religion class', and advised me to visit the Temple. Two years later, I took her advice, and as any viewer would exclaim, I said "wow!". and I felt good. Here are a few tips to maximize your visit:
-- Arrive early enough to experience the short, 11:15 a.m. service. Note that men and women sit separately, directly on the marble floor. (I noticed that several parishioners brought cushions. Otherwise you might get welded to the Marble floor.) If you can, leave a small donation, please do so.
--If you're a first-time visitor, your initial stop should be the gift shop, to rent the $5 recorded tour. The tour is automated; there are sensors by each of the stops.
--When you enter the 'Mandir', you will have to remove your shoes, only bare feet are allowed. There are pigeon hole shelves for storage of your foot wear. Remember: no photography or recording devices inside! So, leave them in the Locked Glove Compartment. Oh... and modest attire, please. No shorts or tank tops. I also feel no suits too.
-- For those with physical limitations, there are steps to climb. (You may want to call first to see if there is an elevator, of which I didn't take note.)
-- Poke around the gift shop when you return the tour equipment. You'll find books, Interesting herbs, soaps, food and art, all well-priced. The incense that my daughter bought 2 years ago is still pungent. (A woman told me that she regularly drives here from Oshawa to purchase herbal supplements --
-- Before leaving, take a few minutes to sit quietly and reflect, at the meditation pool.
You'll find that there are volunteers throughout the Temple and they are friendly, and they encourage questions and they answer them too. Hindu culture embraces diversity, regardless of your belief in any system. And you will feel welcome.
Here I noticed the separation of Men from Women and this Culture is ingrained and demands that it be done within the four walls of the temple. But carrying it one step further and demanding that they be only served by menfolks at every service counter, and also every step of the way, I find, has gone to the extremes and I am surprised that the Canadian Government is now catering this kind of specialty services to them at the Air Port and this is what I call the pinnacle of stupidity. Where in Hindu Religion does it say so? AND What were they expecting? Orifice searches?

Would you be kind enough to post the relevant news article or source?
It will be unfair to comment without facts.

A scandal is a widely publicized allegation or set of allegations that damages (or tries to damage) the reputation of an institution, individual or creed.[dubious – discuss] A scandal may be based on true or false allegations or a mixture of both.
Still failing to understand what wrong did this sadhus commit, to term it as scandal.
My personal opinion, and I am not belonging to the sect, however I have deep respect for them.

It demeans the capabilities of women officers and against the principle of equity.
It damages the reputation and hurt feeling of particular individuals & creed aka women , moreover are true allegations. Thus falls under purview of a scandal.
