Canada: Free Speech
Oh Canada: The Parliament Moves to Impose Potential Life Imprisonment for Speech Crimes
Jonathan Turley
We have previously discussed the unrelenting attacks by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his allies on free speech. There has been a stead criminalization of speech, including even jokes and religious speech, in Canada. Now, the Canadian parliament is moving toward a new change that would allow the imposition of life imprisonment on those who post views deemed supportive of genocide. With a growing movement calling Israel's war in Gaza "genocide," the potential scope of such a law is readily apparent. That appears to be its very draw for anti-free speech advocates in the country.

Orwellian Canada wants to put you in prison BEFORE you commit a thoughtcrime

The country that brought you debanking protesters and government-assisted suicide for the poor now wants to criminalize speech to lock up people for life and to put wrongthinkers under house arrest if the state sees a chance they will commit a crime. Doesn’t get more Orwellian than that.
