So, if you have any sort...

...of mental illness, this guy just put a huge target on your back...
Kicking a student suffering mental illness out of medical school should cost the University of Calgary $5 million, a lawsuit claims.

Matthew Lowry says he was unlawfully booted from the medical program in his final year of studying for his doctorate.

It claims he was treated differently because of his medical condition, which was not disclosed in his court documents.

"The defendants engaged in discriminatory behaviour against the plaintiff because (he) was known to have a mental illness," the lawsuit alleges.
