Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Rex v. Quong Sing, 1913 CanLII 117 (SK CA):
Both the reasoning and the decision in Union Colliery v. Bryden, in my opinion, apply to the enactment now under consideration. The regulations which are here impeached are not really aimed at the regulation of restaurants, laundries, and other places of business and amusement or of the employment of female labour, but were devised to deprive the Chinese, whether naturalized or not, of the ordinary rights of the inhabitants of Saskatchewan. The right to employ, the right to be employed, the right to own property and to own, manage or conduct any business without being subjected to unequal and discriminatory restrictions, are just as truly ordinary rights of the inhabitants of Saskatchewan as the right to work.
