Canada Senate hearing on Bill C16 - Jordan B Peterson Testimony
Dr Jordan B Peterson via You Tube ^ | May 18, 2017 | Jordan B Peterson

I served as a witness at the Canadian Senate yesterday, regarding Bill C16, which adds the ill-defined categories of gender expression and gender identity to the list of prohibited grounds of discrimination. The Federal government, in a website which has since been taken down, stated clearly that this legislation would be interpreted in keeping with the policies of the Ontario Human Rights Commission, which I regard as one of the most dangerous institutions in Canada, in relationship to all rights other than those of "equality," including freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of association. I was partnered with lawyer Jared Brown, whose courageous and detailed analysis of Bill C16 can be found here: https://litigationguy.wordpress.com/2...

which amends the Canadian Human Rights Act and the Criminal Code

Update: on May 18, C16 sailed through the Canadian Senate with no amendments.

This is utter insanity.

Canada is going full out bonkers.

Their politicians are polite simpletons...SJW activists have an easy time to push their agendas in that country.

Their media has to be completely controlled by far out “progressives” or it would not work.

From what I have seen of Canadian media, it makes the U.S. Establishment media appear centrist.

I've just become aware of Jordan Peterson in the last week or two and have been devouring his youtube videos. He has an amazing mind. Like he says in one of his videos, why do these SJWs only want to target pronouns, why not adjectives also.

If I lived in Canada, I would insist that the pronoun used to refer to me was "King of the Universe and all Beyond." Yeah, that's a mouthful, but any SJW calling me "he" or "him" would be committing a hate crime.
