Human Rights   students, something she did not want to do. This was a clear breach of Mrs. Janzen's right not to be forced to associate with the union. Mrs. Janzen has had to file a lawsuit to re-establish the freedom she has been denied. Given the minister's response, will he instruct the Solicitor
