Asked about online harms bill, Poilievre raises Trudeau’s past use of blackface
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Wednesday his party is vehemently opposed to the government’s forthcoming online harms legislation, a bill designed to combat hate speech, terrorist content and some violent material on the internet.
Saying he won’t accept “Justin Trudeau’s woke authoritarian agenda,” Poilievre said the prime minister and his government shouldn’t be deciding what constitutes “hate speech” online and called the legislation an “attack on freedom of expression.”
