By the way, I just got word tonight that the Federal Court of Appeal has resurrected the zombie Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act that was repealed by Parliament last year.

The lower court had upheld its constitutionality but declared the penalty provisions associated with it to be unconstitutional. This new decision overturns that one and they’ve declared everything about it, including the penalty provisions, to be constitutional!

This means that, for the handful of people who are still subjects of complaints under the zombie law, the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal is now free to put the boots to them financially as well as gag them for life.

I’ve never been more ashamed of my country.
