It is about time the Canadian Government got serious about freedom of speech. I wish them well even as I hope they mean it.

Its more preferable for a Government Bill to address the issue. Very few Private Members bills ever make it into law in Canada. Parliament should take a look at the CHRC's with a view to either eliminating the notorious Section 13 or abolishing them altogether. The Dominion did just fine for most of its history without any political correctness busybodies to police thought and speech in the country.

All Human Rights commissions of liberal origin should be buried with greater care than nuclear waste.....in the end, they are absolutely exclusionary, and ruthlessly so....they are, as Warren Buffet might coin, “weapons of civilizational mass destruction”.

Bravo! I will pray this initiative goes well! It's long past time the HRC was taken down.

“thought crimes”? Is that really part of the Canadian law? How Orwellian.

This is a necessary but not sufficient task.

As long as Canada can tolerate an office called “The Secretary of State for Multiculturalism” this will only pop up again in some other form.

I attended a lecture by Ezra Levant this week. What an entertaining and gutsy fellow.

Ezra, you're gonna catch some flak for that misspelling.
