TORONTO (RNS) In case of competing rights, a Toronto woman has lodged a complaint against a barber who refused to cut her hair because he's Muslim.

In June, Faith McGregor requested a man's haircut at the Terminal Barber Shop in downtown Toronto. Co-owner Omar Mahrouk told her that his Muslim faith prohibits him from touching a woman who is not a member of his family. All the other barbers in the shop said the same thing.
