Best Canadian Blog
2004 - 2007
Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

It’s a great question – but I suspect that there is only one end of the political spectrum that is being shut out. It will be interesting to see the answer.
I wonder if any of our moral and intellectual betters, fearlessly seeking opportunities to speak truth to power, have thought to ask that question? If not, why not?
Don’t you find it interesting that one of HRC’s garden variety “deplorables” would have to drink about ten beer before their eloquence will approach that of a sober “thought leader” celebrity like Robert DeNiro?
Better hurry up and cut-off Louis Farrakhan’s Twitter Feed as a high profile anti-Semite leftist sacraficial lamb … then claim that leftist sites are censored … too. Then send out all the leftist spokes holes onto the media to trumpet the “equality” of censorship citing the ONE example. And the dullwitted citizens will never give it another thought … as they march themselves into the thought gulags … willingly.
Faith Goldy was deplatformed from a University panel discussion about stifling of free speech.
Of course there isn’t.
A few sites peddling left-wing fake news for considerable profit, run by the Albanian mafia in former Yugoslav republics, have been blocked by Facebook and Google. No real leftists have been “de-platformed.”
No.
The answer to the question “Is there any evidence that this is happening at both ends of the political spectrum?” is no.
The extreme left and the extreme left do meet at Jew hate junction as Kenji pointed out. I don’t know the far right Stormfront type sites well enough to check. If I had Alexa I could ask it which sites they are. As if.
Jordan Peterson is asking a rhetorical question. His popularity worldwide is a great accomplishment. I read that he has an autoimmune problem and is on a very restricted diet. He’s carrying too much personal responsibility on those shoulders imho. This is not an ego trip for him. He is a warrior. I hope he gets excellent medical treatment very soon.
@myself. Edit! That should have been the extreme right and the extreme left meet. The meaning of ‘extreme’ in this context has gone down the rabbit hole.
Actually I believe you were correct when you said ‘extreme left and extreme left’.
