Even a decade ago, Stephen Harper’s supposedly right-wing ideologues had no stomach for the fight. His “conservative” attorney-general was useless and his “conservative” human-rights commissar was on the other side. When the issue came up in Cabinet, the consensus was that “Steyn’s going to lose” – as every other defendant had lost – and therefore there was no point getting involved. Maclean’s was the country’s biggest-selling news magazine, and its excerpt of America Alone was a short clip from a Number One Canadian bestseller. But the “human rights” commissions had feasted on fringe losers and had worked up an appetite for meatier fare.
I hate STUPIDITY exhibited by government on a CHRONIC basis. Truly the scatological touch when the feds try raising “Franken Feds from the dead”.
Oh…hate speech, call in the feds…wah, wah, wah, someone expressed an opinion that I don’t like.
Run for the hills and cry rivers of tears!
Government has never been yer friend; abjure their idiocy.

People Hate Me When I Tell Them Harper Was a FAKE CON POS. But he was and he was a Globalist Swine. He has now infected Alberta Politics with His Protégé The Porcine Pup Kenney. The 2 FAKE CONS who screwed Alberta on Equalization to buy Quebec votes now run Alberta. Bring Forth A True Conservative Politician or Party in Canada. You can not. Because CPC is the same shit as NDP/LIB. Harper had an Iron Clad Majority and stood and pissed his wool suit. He could not change the Senate, but he could have sold off the CBC, He could of ended the CRTC. He could of shut down the Human Rights Kangaroo Courts by making it law that they had no jurisdiction except what is in the Criminal Code. Instead he wet himself and felt all warm and fuzzy in his wool suit.
Nothing worse than a FakeCon. They give you hope then stab you in the Back.
The only way out for the citizens of Canada is to work to break up Canada.
Watcher, Harper was a great disappointment to me. Canada will not break up as most Canadians embrace Trudeau’s brand of communism. I was going to say socialism but we have gone way beyond that with the covid police state. We are finished because of cowardice and the lack of critical thinking. China will like like having a coast, to coast, to coast, country next door to slow Joe and the democrat communists.
Who isn’t a great disappointment to you other than defacto Grit enablers; failed so ineffective “real conservatives?”
Shamrock name one actual bona fide conservative in the last 75 years in Canadian politics. Why is it wrong to want someone who puts themselves out and advertises they are Conservative to actually be a conservative. Name one. Why support lying ShitCons
Since Watcher doesn’t allow replies, here’s mine.
Who cares. Stand alone “real conservatives” are unelectable, which you just confirmed.
Harper fused libertarians and Conservatives. Idiots like Bernier and cowardly conservatives unfused them.
Leaving the way home for easy Grit victories. A vote for these unelectable fools is just a vote for Grit grifters.
Ha Ha Ha. I censor you. Name a Conservative. Yah well there are none. Like you say they are unelectable. Canada Can Not Be Fixed By Voting In Rigged Elections. It Has To Be Broken Up.
Canada serves no one but elected crooks and the bureaucracy
It is actually like a PENAL COLONY.
I suspected Watcher’s agenda is to break Canada up. Almost always those with no intellectual grounding to describe or espouse actual conservatism, is really hatred of Canada as presently constituted, believing top down conservatism is is no less harmful to democracy or liberty than communist collectivism, in fact enabling it.
My only question is motivation. Intellectual laziness, ignorant arrogance, mean spiritedness or just plain stupidity?
Or perhaps a false flagger given conservatives just aren’t that dense, entrapping western separatists?
Instead of trying to break up Canada, just get the f**k out. Don’t let the door hit your butt on the way out.
Hey Shamrock go perform mouth to asshole on a dead goat.
Watcher, we seem to have a new mental defective on board. Calls itself Shamrock.
Getting the invite to the Bilderberg meeting and Bohemian Grove told me and completely confirmed that Harper was an effing Globalist.
Having lived & worked in Alberta since 1976…there is nothing you just wrote that I disagree with in the slightest Watcher…..not a damned thing.
Conservative..?? = Systemic in yer face BETRAYAL. for 50 fking years.
Be it Federal or Provincial.
MAVERICK. Fuck the REST.
As to C-10 / C-36. Anything you say to anyone can be & will be used against you and you will have ZERO recourse or ability to defend yourself…for once accused.? you’re de-facto convicted.
This is just another step towards Canada’s version of Argentina’s Disappeared…. leading to some Northern Internment Kampf….and eventually to a massive uptick in Federal Creamatoria orders.
History has a nasty habit of recurring…..and it is ALWAYS the ill informed and uneducated fascists at the heart of this shit…Who then are financially emboldened-enriched by the Global Capitalists (aka NAZI’s).
Does that not look and sound precisely like what we have witnessed now for 17 months..? SERIOUS QUESTION..!!
As it was in the mid 30’s – so it is today.
I can clearly see the parallels….can you.?
Maverick party does not want to break up Canada! I think it is the only way we can survive but we need a Trump like MAN to do it.
Otherwise we are doomed to become like China!
My ancestors that helped build this Province ( 1909j are rolling in their graves.
What a waste if a beautiful country. Sigh!
I love reading anything written by Steyn. So much so that as an American in the South I really don’t have a clue what he is talking about (oh, I understand the themes of free speech, but have no concept of Canadian politics) yet still hang on to every word.
Don’t worry, Rich, you will.
Silicon Valley isn’t accountable to voters even in theory, and, naturally, nobody is seriously discussing expropriating THEM.
Rich, Canadian communism coming to a city near you. Why? Because Americans did not stand up and fight, physically, against a fraudulent election. That Rich, is where you are. The world will implode as America implodes. Russia, China , all other countries will go down when America goes down. The tree of liberty will not be watered by the current milk sop generation.
Somewhere in there I think the European Union or a version of them will rise to be the dominant superpower united under one bastardized religion, Roman Catholicism.
You will witness the birth of the final Holy Roman Empire with the ruthlessness of the Original but having modern weapons led by a resurgent Germany.
And don’t think they won’t do the Muslims the same that they did to the Jews.
It’s coming.
Jerusalem is the final prize of this European mixture of evil.
The Asians and Russians will fight them tooth and nail.
Yes. He is terrific. His books are good too. I am sorry that you can no longer view the comments at Steyn online unless you are a subscriber.
Hey Rich, if you like Steyne’s writing… check out “America Alone and After America” You may then think of him as more like Nostradomas.
To our globalist betters, “free speech” means it can never be an offence to distribute pornography, however revolting, or the propaganda of enemies of western civilization for which the globalists openly sympathize.
Actually speaking the truth—an offence for which the Son of God was crucified—has never been tolerated for long.
One knows that the government’s true purpose is to ban any dissent from it (that is what Steven Goebbels promised when he stated that he wanted to make it illegal to taunt politicians).
One needs to consider the emotional retards who conclude that anything expressed is racism. It’s demonstrably false, intellectually dishonest and patently absurd.
Yet the mob has grunted.
Would by some miracle these abominable bills were to die for the mean time, the population would demand something to take its place because vocabulary words hurt.
Woke, millennial, snowflakes, leftist sociopaths and their elected representatives need and want the fascist jackboot of state censorship to protect them from the horrors of possible exposure to dissenting opinion. In our mob rule, oops, I mean democracy built around Trudeauopian constitutional mush, backed up by a more leftist, robed, star chamber judiciary, the Eloi must be coddled and protected until the (Chicom?) Morlocks decide they need feeding.

What kind of piece of shit constitution do we have that it can’t protect us from this kind of abuse from government?
Canada does not have a constitution, it has a document written by lawyers, of lawyers and for lawyers. The “Queen” was dumb enough to sign off on the sad and dangerous document. Pierre Elliot Twadles was a communist, his son is a communist and most Canadians, over 65% of them, are raving socialists who will gladly embrace communism. Until Canadians are actually freezing in the dark, as one Albertan once said, they will never realize just how dumb their actions are. Check out juniors trust fund. Not all communists are poor, just the fools who think they can get something for nothing.
The Queen had no choice but to rubber stamp it after the British parliament and house of Lords voted for it.
Canada severed its ties to the Queen in 1982. The Trudeau legal document peddled by PET made Communism legal and the law in Canada. Equalization fills all tenets of the Marxist plank “From Each According To His Means To Each According To His Need”. In your face MARXISM. And VOWG is correct we never had a real Constitution. Just a bunch of Colonial Instructions from the Crown to an appointed Governor on how to manage a colony. Now we serve under the elected Queen Trudeau as Colonies of Ottawa. No Consent At Any Time Of The People. Break It Up
Correction OWG
“..Pierre Elliot Twadles was a communist, 2 of his sons are communists..”
Justin and Alexandre
Not sure of MIchel, but believe he actually disagreed with the other 3 and as such Cemented his own demise. No such such thing as an Avalanche in Nov….and the Body is where..?? yea, uhuh….LIke Epstein, I’m sure he too committed suicide.
BNA Act 1867. Written by Canadians for Canada. Go learn something instead of unlearning obvious facts.
You have the rights that the government gives you, and no more….
oh, and if it violates the constitution, well there is also the not-withstanding clause, which allows it for 5 years at a time.
The purpose of a constitution is not to protect you from government. It’s to enable you to protect yourself from government. If you won’t do that, the constitution’s irrelevant.
Communist show trials. Canada is a full blown police state, communists and all the courts including SCOC are channeling the same ideology. How has this happened? Canadians are very stupid pigs at the trough and they think it will be filled by even dumber people. They are wrong as everything comes to an end and that includes a communist ideology.
Canada joins its Communist Comrades. China, Cuba, North Korea in total control of free speech and thought. And the Canadian Gutless Sheep love it.
Given enough time Turdeau and his fascist cronies will be using human rights legislation to toast Jews. Interesting how the first right not tolerated by Turdeau and his fascist Quebec Cabal is freedom of speech. I can’t wait to see the elder Turdeau’s army file that would likely peg him as a disloyal Nazi sympathizer but we all know that the file was picked clean of such details. What did a junior officer have to do to get booted out of the army in a war where everyone was being conscripted?
Jews are the ones who started all this hate-speech BS. Ernst Zundel, anyone?
I imagine they were unpleasantly surprised when it was used to defend Islam.
They are not Jews. They are globalists, communists and Christophobes.
They pretend to be Jews because they think Israel is a Costa del Crime they can flee to when the white genocide begins in earnest.
The Israelis hate their guts.
Stephen Harper’s supposedly right-wing ideologues had no stomach for the fight.
This has been the case for decades and when an in depth autopsy is performed on the CPC perhaps a chapter or two will be devoted to those nutless Conservatives who had the chance to change this country but blew it and I’m including Harper. A slight twist on Bishop Sheen’s quote might read: Conservatives have all the truth but no zeal…Liberals have no truth and all the zeal.
That said- my real wrath is reserved for those ridiculously dressed, ermine collared justices of the Supreme Court who overstepped their duties in my opinion by writing laws as opposed to applying them with their absurd “Peace, Order and Good Government” rulings which pretty much means any government can run roughshod over its citizens thereby rendering our Charter of Rights to toilet paper status.
The almost Soviet like architecture of the house they reside in suits them.
And who appointed all the corrupt bastard Judges. Lib/CPC Shit. Ottawa appoints all judges except in Provincial matters traffic courts and family courts. The whole Judiciary is corrupt from top to bottom
Well, to be fair, if we didn’t reanimate human rights commissions then we’d be at the mercy of gross human rights abuses like this:
“In British Columbia, there is at the present moment 16 “human rights” complaints, launched by a single person who asserts the status of “trans woman” against (mainly immigrant) female cosmeticians who — from religious sensibilities, reasons of safety, or simple personal preference — refused that person’s demand for a Brazilian waxing of their male genitals…
The largest of these ironies has to be the publicly expressed disdain and contempt for immigrant women by the person filing complaints because that person insists — it is necessary to be blunt — they handle male genitals.”
https://nationalpost.com/opinion/rex-murphy-b-c-groin-waxing-case-is-a-mockery-of-human-rights
Not a free speech infringement but it does illustrate how these human rights commissions become both ridiculous and abusive at the same time. Like so many government agencies, they are staffed by people who possess zero common sense but are full of arrogance and a kind of self righteousness usually found among religious fundamentalists.
My question is, why now? With so much else going on, why is this a priority for the Trudeau government?
Mockery. More please. It is our only hope. Flood the fascist commissions with the ridiculous.
Yep. Their ridiculousness erodes their credibility.
” With so much else going on, why is this a priority for the Trudeau government ?”
It’s the squirrel deflecting attention from Bill C-10 while that travesty is being implemented.
Tightening the thumb screws. The Gulags will be next.
Seems to be highlighting both as an anti-freedom legislative duo instead of providing a distraction
I’m cynical by nature. I’ve noticed that other anglospere, commonwealth counties are also trying hard to suppress free speech. It seems coordinated. Steyn mentions this in passing in the linked article.
Libertarians might want to accelerate their sea-steading project.
“I’m cynical by nature.”
Perhaps you meant to say skeptical. Skepticism good, cynicism bad.
“Libertarians might want to accelerate their sea-steading project.”
If there are any libertarians.

Batten down the hatches

Welcome to the Peopleskind Socialist Republic of CHINADA.
Like the federal gun registry, section 13 will always be a part of Canada.
The only way forward, is out.
You can get rid of Canada and section 13 though a UDI; or you can keep your RSP and pension and OAS and free healthcare and section 13 and the CBC and Bombardier and Quebec and the voters of Toronto and the RCMP and the Liberal party and the lockdowns and the mask mandates and … .
You are either willing to sacrifice, or it is time to shut up.
You either want freedom, or you want section 13. There is no other choice.
What difference does it make whether you are (mis)ruled by a Leninist in Ottawa or a Trotskyite in Redmonton?
But of course these assholes can preach hating Jews like the Bic C McKenna hates accountability.

Bernie Fucking Farber and Numbnuts Kinsella need to be made to eat their own shit. But Farber especially. He’s borderline insane.
You’ll know we’ve turned the corner when Bernie is on a flight to Tel Aviv—in handcuffs, escorted by Israeli law enforcement, and bound for Israel to stand trial for giving aid and comfort to enemies of the Jewish people.
He won’t be the only Canadian “Reform Jew” on that flight.
It’s outright insane to claim someone borderline insane borderline insane online in Canada.
Lol.
This is great,I FEELZ..
So hate speech is how you feel when someone else speaks..According to the Human Rights Aholes .
The Supreme Court ruled,”Truth is no defence” in such cases..
Therefore Human Rights Cases are outside British Common Law.
So here government is defining how we shall feel.
Who said there was a limit to the intellectual superiority of the Parasitic Overload.
Not only do they know better than us how ,we shall live our lives,associate and earn a crust,now they know how we shall feel.
Well,if after the absolute Shit Show of Dread Covid Theatre,if after bearing witness to the mass slaughter of citizens in Government Care,if after 15 months of “emergency” that was not..you still wish to comply and obey..
You deserve such government.
Watcher is dead right.
We need to declare independence and man the border points with armed citizens.
The Kleptocracy is engaged in an all out assault on the individual.
And we keep talking about “Charter Rights”..
They died in 1982.
Rights and freedoms ,rule of law are moot in The Canadian Kleptocracy.
Government can cast all aside in an “emergency”.
Who defines the emergency?
Government.
Who are they accountable to?
That is up to us.
Remember,in homage to those ghastly Heritage Canada Adds of yester year..”The Guillotine,because it’s our Heritage”.
I repeat myself,these prats are our employees.
Imagine the fate of a small business with help such as we have just observed.
These employees have done incalculable damage to us,now they want praise.?
Utter impossible PRATs.
At best we should be invoking F.O.C.U.S to them,but that is far to gentle a reward for the lawless,panicked abuse they have heaped upon us already..
And now they announce,most proudly…More to come..
For those who have never been invited to FOCUS.
Fook Off Cuz Ur Stupid.
Here we effing go again.
Every generation is stupid enough to feel the need to elect Liberals.
Every generation takes 15 years trying to undo their mistake.
Here we go again.
