Coun. Andrew Stevens, chair of the committee, stopped the conversation, saying Shaw was close to comparing pedophilia and child abuse to homosexuality and that she d be out of order if she did so.
Shaw spoke to CBC after the committee meeting. Asked if she was comparing the two, Shaw said absolutely not. I would like to apologize . I did not mean any harm, Shaw said. I acknowledge that the comment came in the wrong way and I accept that. And I apologize for that and say that was not my intent. Just if you ban all behavior therapy, you re banning everything. And that s what I m worried about.
