Media Lawyers' Assoc.. Conference

Ezra Levant makes opening remarks (refering to CHRC track record):

...That’s not law. That’s corrupt, that’s abusive, that’s un-Canadian.

It’s un-Canadian than not a single person tried under s. 13, in thirty years, has ever been acquitted.

It’s un-Canadian that 91% of the CHRC’s targets are so poor they can’t afford lawyers, and aren’t given one.

It’s un-Canadian that the CHRC goes online, posing as neo-Nazis, spewing racist venom, to entrap people in discussions that they then prosecute.

It’s un-Canadian that the CHRC has no ethics code, and has hacked a private citizen’s e-mail account in one of their neo-Nazi personas – which is why the CHRC is now under both RCMP and Privacy Commission investigation.

Anyone who believes in a spectrum of ideas should be furious with these kangaroo courts. And anyone whose job it is to defend the media should be very worried, too.


I hope Mr. Levant wasn't the only voice of reason.
