It's odd. This story was up all over the National Post network this morning. And now it's disappeared.
The Winnipeg Free Press still has it. Here's the money quote:

When he testified in his own defence, the 45-year-old married father of five denied sexually assaulting his patients and said he believed he had their consent to perform what he called "inguinal massage" — a term, Roller wrote in her decision, that he may have coined himself.
"Wall has told untruths when it suits him," Roller wrote in her decision, which was released Monday. In a letter and text messages to a representative of the Alberta-based Natural Health Practitioners of Canada Association, Wall repeatedly and falsely suggested he had been cleared of the charges against him. Wall had been a member of that association before he was charged. He has a massage therapy certificate from 2010, completed after he took a year-long course that involved one instructional session per week.
In her decision, Roller noted no massage-therapy experts were called to court to explain whether breast massages or internal vaginal massages are legitimate massage therapy techniques.
The case is an example of why massage therapy needs to be a regulated profession in Manitoba, says George Fraser, executive director and registrar of the Remedial Massage Therapists Society of Manitoba.
