Trudeau's Online Harms Bill Threatens Canadians' Basic Rights, Pro-freedom Group Warns"If passed into law, the Act will expose you, along with every other Canadian, to being prosecuted by the Canadian Human Rights Commission over anything you say that someone else might view as 'hateful.'"' -the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms [LifeSiteNews.com] One of Canada's leading pro-freedom constitutional groups warned that the federal government's Online Harms Act is a dangerous piece of legislation that is not only an "assault" on free speech but will be used to take away "basic rights" by allowing the return of "Kangaroo courts."
