QotD: Free Speech in Canada

[T]he degree to which speech in Canada has been corralled and controlled by the courts, ever-invasive government institutions and unaccountable "human rights" tribunals is deeply disturbing. The trend has been reinforced for decades by a Liberal party reward system for pro-Liberal journalism, overtly (through diplomatic postings and Senate seat appointments) and financially. In America, the largest advertiser is Procter & Gamble. In Canada, it is the federal government.

I love the simpletonian use of "quotation marks". Very telling. The anarcholibertarian conspiracy theorists live! Viva the anarcholibertarian conspiracy theorists. Posted by: Alan at January 28, 2006 10:58 AM
