With Bill C-10, Trudeau & Guilbeault Show They See Themselves As Rulers, And See You As A Powerless Subject
Politicians would only try this on a people they feel are too weak and easily manipulated to push back.
Travel Restrictions Aren’t a Silver Bullet
The Trudeau government implemented travel restrictions weeks and months after they could help, continuing its pattern of making things up as it goes. Yet those calling for increased border restrictions, such as Ontario Premier Doug Ford and a number of columnists, are calling for solutions that could very easily trample on the rights of Canadian citizens. True North’s Andrew Lawton explains.
Why Heritage Minister Steven Guilbeault’s Own Department Officials Don’t Support His Claims on Regulating User Generated Content
Days after the government removed legal safeguards designed to ensure the CRTC would not regulate user generated content as part of Bill C-10, its Broadcasting Act reform bill, the public and political world have awoken to the troubling implications for freedom of expression. Political columnists are comparing Canada to China in censoring the Internet and opposition MPs have launched petitions with promises to fight back against the bill.

How Activism In Everything Has Transformed National Life Into A Pantomime
Our flags seem perpetually at half-staff. They came halfway down in honor of the Atlanta shooting victims, and for when we crossed the somber total of an estimated 500,000 Americans who died with coronavirus. They were lowered in honor of U.S. Capitol Police Officer William “Billy” Evans, in honor of the Boulder, Colorado shooting victims, and in honor of the Indianapolis shooting victims. They fell for George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Chadwick Boseman.
Perhaps some of these memorial actions are warranted — certainly, it is proper to have some form of public memorialization for the dead. Yet the constant churn of half-staff tributes has become so routine that it has lost its honorary lustre, an action more representative of performative, activist art than a recognition of some especially important public loss.
Biden’s Infrastructure Plan Would Redefine ‘Broadband’ To Justify Spending $100 Billion on Government-run Internet

‘It’s all social justice. All day. Every day.’ Socialist OPRF school board members caught gloating on Zoom
Two Roosevelt University professors who also serve on the Oak Park and River Forest High School school board were caught on an open Zoom call bragging about how they promote Marxist re-organization of American society to their college students.
Talking before the start of OPRF’s Feb. 26 board meeting on a live microphone, Gina Harris and Ralph Martire said they were proud to advocate for so-called “social justice” Marxist economic concepts.
