(H/T - Jon Ham)
Mark Steyn, who himself is under attack by the Islamokazis and borderline Communists busy taking over our neighbor to the north, highlights a few of the more egregious examples of attacks on conservative speech there:
- John David Beck, who is an idiot racist, was fined CDN$6,000 for “dehumanizing” the disabled, “a particularily vulnerable group”.
- Free Dominion, Free Republic’s sister site, has moved its corporate structure to Panama. They previously had moved their servers to the US because they had already begun to see this anti-conservative wave coming in 2002.
- Ezra Levant was hauled before Alberta’s “Human Rights” Commission because he dared publish a few cartoons of Mohammed in his (now-defunct) magazine, cartoons like this one…
No wonder why they’re doing stupid stuff like banning the use of live bait and barbed hooks in their provincial parks.

Canada: Freedom of Speech succumbing to Kangaroo Courts of the Human Rights Commission
Proceedings against Ezra Levant are nothing short of ridiculous, but let’s consider the implications for moderate Muslims. This “investigation” will further divide Muslims and non-Muslims in Canada. It will give credence to radicals’ claims that the West is at war with Islam. It will antagonize non-Muslims and moderate Muslims will be pushed towards radicalization. Regardless of the outcome, once again Islamists skillfully manipulated Dhimmi justice system and came out as clear winners. Thank you, Human Right Commission!
