Free speech in Canada is on the way out
Is this the direction the U.S. is moving? In Canada you can not only get in trouble for "hate speech," (just like here), but you also can't call someone "an enemy of free speech." Now that's hateful! Read about it at
Volokh Conspiracy.
The court is insisting that Canadians' speech not only follows the government-approved ideology on the topic of race, ethnicity, and religion (an ideology that I agree with, but that I don't think should be legally coerced). It is also insisting that Canadians' speech follows the government-approved ideology and terminology on the topic of free speech itself.
