we do have free speech here, but there are limitations. we cannot speak ideas of hatred freely. we cannot incite hatred to any identifiable groups.

well you know what...if free speech entitles people to be hateful towards each other...then i dont want it. sorry. i'd much rather our speech be censored so that people cannot spout hateful ideals. nothing good can come from hateful words, and thats likely why we dont allow it here.

You sound like you HATE hateful speech!??
Quick someone call the RMP, and have this extremely hateful individual "dealt with accordingly" for his offensive hate speech.
He was clearly speaking about an identifiable group, and his tone was clearly hateful and calling for them to be "dealt with accordingly".
I find the hypocrisy ironic.
I'll pretend none of you know what you are talking about and that I didn't read this or post here, so I don't have to deal with the newfound realization that Canada is Totalitarian due to censoring political viewpoints they disagree with.

Again, no matter how you may feel about this particular person, she is an American and we have to stard together when this crap happens. Same thing with Michael Savage and Britian banning him FOR WHAT HE MIGHT SAY !!!!

Free Speech is a Human Right.
I assume Canadians are "Human"?
