5 Feet of Fury

Heather Mallick, international woman of embarrassment, says Palin “not really female”

Her latest column fisked by Ed Morrissey at HotAir:

Remember when Mark Steyn and Ezra Levant had to spend a lot of money answering to Canada’s absurd Human Rights Commission over charges of “hatred” for their work in pointing out the demographics of Islam in the West?  I wonder what their HRC will make of Heather Mallick.  After all, if Canada wants to stamp out “hatred”, then her column last week on Sarah Palin seems like a fine place to start…

I can’t bring myself to post excerpts, so you’ll just have to click on the link.

Morrissey continues:

Canada’s HRC and its affiliates in the provinces are offenses against free speech.  I don’t think they should exist at all, as their very existence puts a strong chill on political speech.
However, no one in Canada seemed outraged enough to stop them from shuttering Levant’s magazine and attempting to bankrupt both Levant and Steyn for some imagined hatred.
Mallick has made it explicit. Will the Human Rights Commission now bankrupt the CBC in a similar manner, or will they expose themselves as nothing more than a partisan attack dog for the Left?

Kate wonders why we’re obliged to pay for this crap.
