Would-be future PM (and my MP) says Canada’s hate speech law is a-ok!

October 21, 2009 By admin

Moose and Squirrel reports:

Finally, Iggy emails an answer to my 1st request sent October 2, 2009 (2nd identical request was sent October 19, 2009). My question was: If elected, will your Liberal government promise to abolish Section 13 from the Canadian Human Rights Act and restore Canadians’ Charter Right to freedom of speech, freedom of expression, and freedom of the press?

“Iggy” responds in part:

While we recognize that s. 13, as it is, may not strike the perfect balance, we do not believe that scrapping it entirely is the way to make a positive change.

Meet the new Ig — very different from the old Ig…
