[Canada] Gay rights 1, free speech 0

Some places, Canada springs to mind, probably do need the helping hand of an Islamofascist dictatorship every now and then to set them straight.

The Christians and Jews might take this sort of oppression from Ottawa, but your typical Moslem settler in Toronto is more likely to fight back. That will give them an edge in the culture wars.

Hope Canadians like veils.

Canada is just the beginning. Expect similar judicial opinions in the U.S. to follow soon.

Canada - and I was thinking of emigrating there if Kerry gets elected

Aside from their gun laws (and Canada is every bit as bad), I would be heading to Australia. Better weather, less bitter population.

I agree - trade the froggie Quebec for the least coast states of the US like Vermont, Mass, Connecticut, New Jersey and New York...and leave the rest of it to mid American states.

While we are at it, throw in Kalifornistan.

Well, at least we have you there fighting the good fight. How did Mulrooney ever get elected? From down here he seemed pretty good -- don't know how looked from your side. And what ever became of Kim Campbell?

[victoryatallcosts]

Now, to be fair, Brian Mulroney won his first election when I was one year old, his second when I was five, and was out of office before I turned ten. But, in reality, he was something of a disaster for the right in this country. As a result of his policies, the former Progressive Conservatives ended up in three different parties.

Kim Campbell was crushed in the 1993 General Election, where the Tories went from 160ish seats to 2.

Thanks for the update. And I wish I was as young as you!! Unfortunately I can remember all the way back to Lester Pierson. And when Tim Horton was known for hockey instead of donuts.

[little jeremiah]

You were right. Unfortunately so many people have been more intrested in bread (microbeers?) and circuses (cable TV?) than in reality. No doubt the radical homosexuals and their minions are drawing up hate-speech legislation in backrooms right now. Will they succeed?

BTW, the most "hateful" thing anyone can say is that homosexuals can change, they don't HAVE to suffer from SSAD. Them's fightin' words!

[Luircin]

Well, time to suit up for another round of persecution. I wonder if I'd be hauled in for "hate" crimes if I started quoting the Bible in Canada. I'm half tempted to take a trip up there and do it just to see the looks on their faces when I told them aaaaalllll about myself.

In any case, are we really surprised? The world's going to heck in a hand-basket and if things keep going, it'll be a civil war all over again. The only good news is that we're going to win because we have all the guns.

[BraveMan]

The irony in all this is Christian viewpoints expressed in the media (music, print, television) are more prevalent in Canada than in the United States. My personal experience has shown the level of miltant atheism in Canada is not even close to the level found in the United States (at least in Canada's "flyover country").

What will happen in the future remains to be seen. At the moment however, you will find it is easier to expouse a Christian point of view (and receive less derision for doing so) in Canada than here in the U.S., government actions notwithstanding.
