Internet ban in Canadian prisons is unconstitutional because it blocks access to education, new lawsuit alleges

The federal government’s refusal to allow prisoners to use the internet effectively blocks access to post-secondary education behind bars, a new lawsuit alleges.

Noting how colleges and universities that once offered paper correspondence programs have shifted almost entirely online, the lawsuit by the John Howard Society and a prisoner serving a life sentence argues that the Correctional Service of Canada’s internet ban — and “woefully inadequate” access to computers in general — infringes prisoners’ “fundamental right to freedom of expression,” which includes the right to receive information.

I guess porn is considered “education” by some.

Joe Biden’s presidency has been a conspiracy against the world

Joe Biden might not remember his debate performance, but the world does, and it’s etched on our memory as a symbol of national decline. As the Democrats discussed who might replace him on the ticket – “Can Jimmy Carter still walk?” – I thought, “They’ll have to prise it from his cold dead hand.” For this tragedy is about a man in total denial, enabled by a system steeped in paranoid fantasy. The Democrats kept us distracted with Russiagate, January 6 and “Trump humped a porn star” while the world’s last superpower was being run by a zombie.

Environmental groups say Canada should allow Communist Chinese EV’s to undermine Canada’s auto sector

A trade war with China over EVs could slow Canada’s low-carbon transition, groups warn

Environmental groups are calling on the federal government to avoid getting into a trade war with China over electric vehicles.

They say they fear trade sanctions could make EVs more expensive, delaying Canada’s transition to a low-carbon economy.

Less than a week after the federal government announced it was considering imposing trade restrictions on cheaper Chinese-made EVs, groups like Environmental Defence are urging Ottawa to consider the ramifications of such a move.

I bet commie Guilbeault agrees.
