Immigrant to Canada myself. Coming from a country where people were disembowelled, hung drawn and quartered. Later had their tongues slit etc. This for speaking against the authority and the church. A bit before my time though. Later the reformers brought free speech to the land of England. Now England is an even harsher country than Canada on the rights of free speech. Edmund Burke must be turning in his grave.

I think that we in Canada need a Paul Shankland or a Doug from Upland. The left are notoriously lacking in humour. They may laugh when someone takes a tumble though. Or even when a bogus view of the interaction between Muslims and rural hicks is given a sitcom status.

An Iranian "refugee" in Toronto has plagued the life out of the Ontario courts for years. Filing suit after suit. He has used words of absolute hate against Canada. Yet the Major,former Iranian Airforce pilot soldiers on. I stand corrected, but they are just scared of him. The poor Canadian who gets in the sights of the Human Rights Commission, is up against it. I can think of no more damning indictment against the Human Rights Johnnies.

I do not think though, that the comments made against Mr Warman et al, would jeopardise an American citizen trying to cross into Canada. Perhaps the remarks were made tongue in cheek. At worst case scenario, they would be turned around and go back to the Land of the Free.

No brave soul myself for leading off. Why? One. I would get a fairly reasoned hearing against the Human Rights Commission. This by the local judiciary. Two. The lights are a twinkling across the St Mary's River. The snug little city of Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan. Just to know that America and the First Amendment is there.

To digress. I was advised of the book "The New Dealers War". Thomas Fleming is the author. I have it. Basic Books (2001). Double price by the time Coles of Canada got it for me. Still exploring the world of books- lucky me.

Not only is so called hate speech outlawed but critcism of those who enforce it is as well. The Judge is an ass.
