UPDATE:
Breathtaking work by Steyn and Levant.
If you missed it, you missed two amazing performances.
The politicians were left looking totally idiotic.
Especially the two frogs and the commie.
Let’s hope we can get it up on YouTube somehow…

Now sit back and watch a Hindu tell a Jew how to feel about the Holocaust!
Oh, and The Guy Who Is Suing Us gets mentioned. A lot.
UPDATED: Canada.com news report on today’s hearing:
Steyn asserted that “psychologically disturbed” employees of the commission have been influenced by a former employee, [The Guy Who Is Suing Us], who has filed just about all of the complaints that the commission has received involving online hate in recent years.
“Section 13’s underlying philosophy is incompatible with a free society. Its effect is entirely irrelevant to the Queen’s peace, and its use by agents of the human rights commission has been corrupted and diseased beyond salvation,” Steyn said. (…)
Since the 1977 adoption of the Canadian Human Rights Act, 17 Section 13 complaints went to a tribunal hearing. Of those, the tribunal has upheld 16, most of which were filed by [The Guy Who Is Suing Us].

Mark Steyn and Ezra Levant will testify against Canada’s Human Rights Commissions at a Select Committee in Ottawa this afternoon, starting at 3:30 PM ET.
You can watch them on CPAC, or if you aren’t Canadian, on the web.
I’d suggest visiting their websites throughout the day for any updates.
