FREE SPEECH IS ENDING FAST

In Canada, the Online Harms Act proposes punishment for Canadians who HAVE NOT committed a hate speech crime, BUT MIGHT!! Justice Minister Arif Virani defends house arrest power for people feared to commit a hate crime in FUTURE!! The Online Harms Act, empowering a complainant to assert to a provincial court that they “fear” that someone will promote genocide, hatred or antisemitism. If the judge believes that there are “reasonable grounds” to justify the fear, the court can immediately require the accused citizen to do any or all of the following: wear an ankle bracelet; obey a curfew and stay at home; abstain from alcohol, drugs, or both; provide bodily substances (e.g. blood, urine) to confirm abstinence from drugs or alcohol; refrain from communicating with certain designated persons; not go to certain places; and surrender her or his legally owned and legally required firearms.In other words: a citizen who has not committed any crime can be subjected to court-ordered restrictions on her liberty, just because someone fears that she might commit a “speech” crime in future. A person’s failure to agree to these restrictions could result in a prison term up to two years.This is where we’re going! Yes, fascism is back, in full uniform! All one needs is to find a COMPLAINANT!
