Canada - and free speech
I always consider Canada to be very much like the United States.
That's why this "free speech" issue that they are currently involved in, interests me so much.
It's doesn't sound good...

At RealClearPolitics.com, David Warren writes about it:
"Fr de Valk has written a lead editorial in the June number of Catholic Insight that should be read not only from the pulpit to every practising Catholic in Canada, but by every concerned Canadian regardless of his religious or political affiliations. It is entitled, 'Fascism has come to Canada,' and mentions several other major cases in which Christians have been hauled before the country's 'human rights' tribunals, and ordered to abandon their beliefs, pay out to complainants, stage public recantations, submit to indoctrination, etc. -- with little to no media coverage. Alas, there are more cases (they are multiplying quickly), and the 'human rights' commissars are not the only source of state persecution."
