Canada should create a Free Republic if they desire prosperity instead of the Coastal Big City Government they have now.
Socialism is a poverty failure. Do not blame the USA for Canada’s failed Govt.
There was, freedominion.ca modeled after freerepublic...it was sued and found libel by a liberal judge and had to shut down as it had so many leftist enemies who were filing suits the couple could not keep on risking everything to go on.
If I remember correctly the repeated court suits and inHuman Wrongs Tribunals cost them $80k in fines and large legal fees on top of $80k.
It was decided in Canada that you are responsible for something someone else posts on your forum. And even posting a link to something that was slanderous or deemed “hate” made the owners libel. They had even moved their servers to Panama a few years before, but the judge saw herself as having global authority.
The former owners and many members are still here.
Canada HAD a Free Republic called Free Dominion. The jack-booted government shut it down. I kid you not. You can look it up.
