Unfortunately, many Canadians seem reluctant to comprehend the consequences of this anti-freedom, anti-democratic agenda.

Despite the federal Liberals not actually getting Bill C-10 and C-36 passed through the House of Commons and Senate this past parliamentary session, the message is clear to Big Tech platforms; start throttling alternative media or face increasingly heavy regulations.

It came as no surprise to me to see activists ‘celebrating’ Canada Day by setting fire to churches and toppling statues of Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria, while chanting, ‘No pride in genocide.’
Canada has managed to cultivate a culture that is simultaneously self-hating and self-righteous. We have no pride in being Canadian. Yet we are confident we are better than everyone else.

Both the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF) and the Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) have condemned the bill as dangerous and infringing on Canadians’ rights.

The bill seeks to expand powers to prosecute individuals involved in “hate propaganda” or so-called “online hate” by amending the Criminal Code, the Youth Criminal Justice Act and the Canadian Human Rights Act.
That’s a feature, not a bug.

In case you haven’t noticed, in the age of COVID-19, our laid-back, ultra-liberal northern neighbor, Canada, is moving steadily toward tyranny, and there are not many people in the country who seem to mind.

When asked whether they support a federal government bill to promote and demote content in the results of search functions on social media sites like YouTube and Facebook, 62% of Ontario residents said they oppose this initiative. Of those, 41% said they strongly oppose the government having this power, while only 6% strongly support it.

Are you ready for this week’s absurdity? Here’s our Friday roll-up of the most ridiculous stories from around the world that are threats to your liberty, risks to your prosperity… and on occasion, inspiring poetic justice.

The Liberal government’s Bill C-36 would let the Canadian Human Rights Commission prosecute people for online speech, and would also give courts the power to take away liberty over fear someone might commit a hate-motivated offence. Former human rights commission defendant Ezra Levant joined True North’s Andrew Lawton to discuss Bill C-36, which Ezra says is the “legislation of cancel culture.”
Canada’s ruling Liberal government announced on Wednesday that it plans to make online hate speech a crime punishable by as much as $20,000 (roughly $16,250 US) for the first offense and $50,000 ($40,600 US) for the second. The proposal would punish social media users who broke the law but exempt social media companies that host such content from fines.

They have an opportunity to reconsolidate some of the lost conservative vote, and focus the attention of the nation on a true debate over freedom of expression and the limits of government power.

The trend in all of this legislation is clear: More government control, less freedom. And C-36 takes that to a terrible new level.
YouTube took down one of our videos about a freedom rally last week. Twitter keeps shadow banning this account. And now the censors at Facebook are warning users about our content. Did they all get orders from Ottawa to silence me and the PPC? pic.twitter.com/jPcQLetGy2

Anyone wishing to see any site like this one, or one that may contain facts which contradict the narrative, need to get a VPN today. Make sure you set the server proxy outside Canada. For all I know, the Government of Canada has a workaround for this. But for the moment this should defeat any blockages that the Trudeau Government installs.
