“Human Rights” Commission’s head ‘roo says: “No ‘free pass’ for online comments”

Written by Joel Johannesen on Monday September 15 2008 at 12:13 PM

I documented some of the vile, hateful comments from CBC.ca fans that I’ve found at the vile, divisive, hateful CBC.ca because the CBC is state-owned and state-run; but also because they have somehow managed to skip merrily along without being crushed by Canada’s “Human Rights” commissars.  That doesn’t seem fair. 

But honestly.  I spent all this time and my cash documenting the hate-speech in my PTBC category called CBC Reader Comments of hate.  I should really get paid for this work. 

No ‘free pass’ for online comments

Published: Monday, September 15, 2008

OAKVILLE, ONT.—Anyone who runs an online message board, from the lowliest vanity blogger to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, can be charged under federal human rights law if visitors to their site post hateful comments, according to the Canadian Human Rights Commission.

The CBC might even start hoping that my mantra comes true (SAY IT WITH ME!:  State-owned and state-run media should be banned in this country, and that notion should be enshrined in our constitution).  That way they wouldn’t have to testify and face questions at the ‘roo court.  I mean how ironic and embarrassing.

COMMENTS

Comments do not necessarily reflect or in any way represent the opinion of the main blog entry writer or owner of this site, and claims to the contrary are spurious. Distasteful, abusive, hateful, or annoying remarks will likely be deleted; but since this is a relatively open forum, bad comments may accidentally remain on this site. The fact that a comment remains does not indicate an endorsement of the views.

    But Joel, hateful comments against conservatives is not consider hate speech.  It’s called being progressive.  That’s what CBC does.

    I would say what I think but I would get in trouble with an HRC. Seriously; why doesn’t someone haul an HRC before another HRC for violating our human rights? Better yet, why isn’t this an election issue? Oh…sorry…I forgot…I need to be more progressive.
