We really need to focus on getting our Freedom of Expression laws in order like Americas.
"Hate speech, obscenity, and defamation are common categories of restricted speech in Canada."
This is way to broad of a definition, and is rife for abuse. Comedians for example have gotten fucked over for simply talking back to hecklers who happened to be Lesbian.
I've been living my life openly as a gay man for the past decade now and I couldn't disagree more with this level of power being bestowed upon us.
People should have the right to call me whatever the fuck they want, and I have the right to ignore it.
I'm really fucking sick of people using us to curtail more and more freedom here in Canada, which btw has been nothing but accepting of me. I've felt absolute privilege to be born and raised here.
