Brian Lilley: new Conservative bill an attack on liberty; will make linking to ‘hateful’ websites a crime

May 6, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Brian Lilley writes:

I’m sure that some Tory supporters have been dancing in the streets singing Let Freedom Reign, but putting your faith in any one political party is having blind faith.

The people with the power are the ones we often need to be most afraid of, nameless, faceless bureaucrats with immense power to set regulations that can be impossible to overturn. And since we don’t vote for them, they have no reason to fear us.

The bill plans to make it a crime to link to any website that promotes hatred.

For simply posting a link to a website that has material someone else deems hateful, you could go to jail for two years and be branded a criminal.

The Internet police. Only in Canada.
