No, Canada!
The country that brought you debanking protesters and government-assisted s=
uicide for the poor now wants to criminalize speech to lock up people for l=
ife and to put wrongthinkers under house arrest if the state sees a chance =
they will commit a crime.=20
Doesn=E2=80=99t get more Orwellian than that.=20
The chillingly titled Online Harms Act was introduced in February by
Justice Minister Arif Virani.
Pissed at your girlfriend? Tell the government she=E2=80=99s likely to comm=
it a hate crime and have her house-arrested.=20
Worse, one provision in the bill would =E2=80=9Cincrease the maximum penalt=
y specifically for advocating genocide from 5 years to life imprisonment.=
=E2=80=9D
We=E2=80=99re sure a law that criminalizes =E2=80=9Cadvocating for genocide=
=E2=80=9D could never be twisted to criminalize support for Israel.
The pro-Hamas left will have a field day.
The law would saddle social media companies that refuse to bend the knee wi=
th insane fines reaching up to 6% of global revenue.=20
In short, it would be the end of free expression in Canada.=20
