Okay, I see (and I agree with you on the zombie thing). Does this mean that after June of this year cases like the one brought against you can no longer be brought?

Nobody will be able to use the "hate speech" provisions of the Human Rights Act to bring cases against people after June.

Our case, though it is related because the comments in question were about the plaintiff's use of Section 13, is a defamation case that was brought in a real court.

We've (mostly) gotten rid of Section 13, but now we need to get rid of our gross defamation law, too.

Well that seems to be some good news anyway. The hate speech laws were what was used against Mark Steyn, weren’t they?

Boy it would be some sweet payback if you could start a grassroots wave and get the defamation law repealed. Your case should make it obvious to anyone who’s even remotely sensible why it needs to be repealed.
