The Canadian Government is "committed" to creating an internet censor board after @justintrudeau calls unregulated speech "destabilizing." So the people who have already been caught censoring the truth will create a censor board to protect you? Wow. The reason "unregulated speech is destabilizing" is because DEMOCRACY IS MESSY. That's the beauty of it. We entangle to expose the real truths in life. If you regulate speech it may "stabilize" your economy but it removes basic human rights. That is not democracy. What Trudeau is saying is that FREE SPEECH IS BAD FOR INVESTING and so he wants to limit your free speech so that he can more tightly control you. And that's what is happening in every democratic society today where the "progressive Liberals" rule. They are selling your future to secure their own. {Article in Spoiler} Cabinet in a letter to MPs said it is “committed” to appointing an internet censor board called a Digital Safety Commission to police legal content, but set no deadline for legislation. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau earlier described uncensored speech as “destabilizing.”
“The Government of Canada is considering the creation of a new Digital Safety Commission,” cabinet wrote in a letter to the Commons foreign affairs committee. The agency would monitor internet content deemed hurtful though legal. “The Government of Canada is committed to developing new rules for platforms that are backed up by strong enforcement mechanisms,” it wrote.
“The introduction date for this legislation has not been determined,” said the letter. “The Department of Canadian Heritage is working with other government departments to deliver on this important initiative.”
The Criminal Code and provincial libel laws already prohibit hate speech, uttering threats, incitement to violence, obscenity, slander and other objectionable internet content. Censorship was “a risk-based approach to platform regulation whereby online services would be compelled to identify, assess and mitigate risks on their platforms,” said the letter. “The risks to be identified, assessed and measured would be set out in legislation.”
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in an interview last September 9 with legal counsel at the Public Order Emergency Commission said he was committed to internet regulation. “The Prime Minister emphasized the need for governments to take online rhetoric seriously,” said an Interview Summary by lawyers with the Freedom Convoy inquiry.
“He noted we are living in a very difficult time right now,” said the Summary. “The problem arises when disagreements are built on falsehoods or wrong facts because then it becomes difficult to have a real debate and genuine exchange of ideas.”
“The government believes in free speech,” said Trudeau. “But with social media there is a new way to foment anger and hate that is different from anything we have seen before, difficult to counter, and it is destabilizing our democracy.”
Cabinet to date has not reintroduced a censorship bill that lapsed in the pre-election 2021 Parliament. Bill C-36 An Act To Amend The Criminal Code proposed $70,000 fines for internet users responsible for legal content deemed “likely to foment detestation or vilification.”
Cabinet in a July 29, 2021 Technical Paper and Discussion Paper urged the appointment of a Digital Safety Commissioner to monitor legal content. The Commissioner would have powers to investigate anonymous complaints, conduct closed-door hearings and block websites.
The proposal drew protests from a majority of 9,218 petitioners to the Department of Canadian Heritage. Academics, libertarians, lawyers, legislators and free speech advocates said regulation of legal speech was unwieldy and unconstitutional.
The University of Toronto’s Citizen Lab said federal regulation was so sweeping it would quash political dissent. “The proposals fail to account for the importance of protecting the kinds of expression that are most central to a free and democratic society including journalism, academic scholarship and public interest research, debate, artistic creation, criticism and political dissent,” Citizen Lab wrote in its submission to the heritage department.

If you've been following the Chinese Election Interference story, this will make sense. The story goes that it's starting to look like Trudeau may have benefitted from Chinese CCCP interference in his favor in Canadian elections. Nothing to see here. Trudeau Foundation’s Entire Leadership Resigns Citing ‘Political Climate’The entire leadership of the Trudeau Foundation has resigned in the wake of a revelation it had received a donation from a businessman tied to the Chinese regime. “In recent weeks, the political climate surrounding a donation received by the Foundation in 2016 has put a great deal of pressure on the Foundation’s management and volunteer Board of Directors, as well as on our staff and our community,” the Foundation wrote in an April 11 statement. “The circumstances created by the politicization of the foundation have made it impossible to continue with the status quo, and the volunteer Board of Directors has resigned, as has the President and CEO.”

This TERRIFIC article summarised fairly concisely what is happening with the "Chinese election interference" in Canada.
Long story short, wealthy Chinese party member donates $200K to the Trudeau charitable foundation as well as $800K to other Trudeau charitable causes (including erecting a statue of Pierre Trudeau), when questions were asked back in 2016 Justin Trudeau quashed the discussion.
Now everyone is trying to figure out why.
It's starting to become apparent why Trudeau's wife left him in the 1st year of the pandemic. Another thing the news has been hiding from the public.

CBC takes up to $1.5 BILLION from the Canadian government. But objects to being labelled "state funded" news by Twitter. What would you call them?

The misinformation came from the government, who covers for Big Pharma, who covers for their own paycheck and nobody else.
Canadians are dying at unprecedented rates, especially young people.
The mandates harmed more people than they saved.

In my hometown, in my neighborhood, Wendy Ashby of the Waterloo Regional District Catholic School Board (WDCSB) a trustee openly tweeted the following: "The most dangerous creature on the planet is the white Christian male. They're a Threat to anyone that is not them. #truth #facts #misoginy #whiteentitlement #racism #homophobia" Her Twitter account has since been taken down. The WDCSB refuses to condemn her attack against White Christian Males. The fact is that if anyone had said this about ANY other race or religion, they'd be on hate crime charges. What a messed up world that allows hate in one direction.
There is an evil that prowls the world and it has never changed its aim, only its pawns.

Nothing to see here. Just your average, run of the mill, politician laundering foreign Communist Chinese money through a family charity for political gain. ---------------------------------------------------------- Brother of @justintrudeau is summoned to testify Wednesday over disclosures Trudeau Foundation falsified @canrevagency filings to conceal China donors, a breach of federal law. blacklocks.ca{Article In Spoiler} Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s brother has been summoned to testify Wednesday at the Commons ethics committee over his role at the Trudeau Foundation. Alexandre Trudeau was a senior director when the Foundation falsified reports to conceal Chinese donations, says a former CEO. The Income Tax Act requires that all charities truthfully account for donations under threat of 125 percent penalties and loss of charitable status.
“I took my prerogative as chair to take him up on his offer to speak to a parliamentary committee,” said Conservative MP John Brassard (Barrie-Innisfil, Ont.). Alexandre Trudeau in an April 27 interview with the Québec daily Le Devoir said he was “prepared to say everything I know about the Foundation.”
“The Foundation has done nothing wrong,” Trudeau was quoted. He is scheduled to appear for committee questioning Wednesday at 4:30 pm Eastern.
Pascale Fornier, former CEO, said Alexander Trudeau was a senior director when the Foundation altered documents regarding 2016 Chinese donations he had brokered. “Alexandre Trudeau currently is not on the board of directors but at the time he was on the board of directors and on the executive committee,” testified Fornier. Alexandre posed for photographs with Chinese donors in accepting the $140,000 contribution.
The Foundation in its public reporting misrepresented the source of the money, said CEO Fornier. “This was a declaration on behalf of the Foundation to say that it was not foreign money, that it was Canadian money – this was in the annual report as well – when in fact the tax receipt itself mentions China,” said Fornier. “I think this is something that is misleading to Canadians.”
“I sought legal advice and guidance in order to correct the information that was sent and made public, remembering that this is public money – not the donation, but the Foundation,” said Fornier. The Foundation’s main source of revenue is a $125 million taxpayers’ endowment awarded by Parliament in 2002.
“You must understand this was before my time,” said Fornier, who joined the Foundation in 2018. “I tried to put the puzzle back together.”
Fornier said the Foundation initially receipted donations from contributors associated with the China Cultural Industry Association of Beijing with Chinese addresses, then issued follow-up receipts stating the donors were in Québec. “There were different addresses,” she said. “The receipts were different. I wanted to understand what was going on.”
“I realized a Chinese Association was communicating with employees of the Foundation,” said Fornier. “They were giving clear direction on what needed to appear on receipts issued by the Foundation. I found that troubling.”
“I immediately started to ask questions,” said Fornier. “Why is it we would have two receipts that are so different that one seems to be international with money that seems to come from China and another one with an address in Québec?”
“On the receipts the information was different than what was posted in the annual reports and what was shared with the Canada Revenue Agency,” said Fornier.
Fornier and the Foundation’s board abruptly resigned April 10 following disclosures they ignored warnings from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service over acceptance of large cash contributions from Chinese donors. “Did you step down because you weren’t comfortable with your own legal standing?” asked New Democrat MP Matthew Green (Hamilton Centre, Ont.). “Yes,” replied Fornier, a law professor at the University of Ottawa.
The Commons public accounts committee on April 24 asked the Canada Revenue Agency to audit the Foundation. Under the Tax Act “a registered charity that issues an official donation receipt that includes deliberately false information is liable to a penalty equal to 125 percent of the eligible amount stated on the receipt,” according to an Agency guide.
“If the charity is liable for penalties in excess of $25,000 for issuing false receipts, that charity is also liable to one year’s suspension of its charitable status,” says an Agency guide Consequences Of Improper Receipting.

What a messed up world that allows hate in one direction. There is an evil that prowls the world and it has never changed its aim, only its pawns. The lack of accountability in the world is currently destroying the very fabric of society. People used to be accountable for their negative words or actions. Or at the VERY LEAST the perception that wrong doing is held accountable was what the majority believed. That no longer is the case. We've seen that people can do or say whatever they want with impunity and it is causing a mass unravelling of society. When those in power have no accountability you have no more order. No more reason and logic. You just have anarchy and chaos and they are ruled by power and tyranny and not logic or order. And that seems to be what they want anyway. What this woman stated holds true for EVERYONE religion. I said it a decade ago on the CGC forums. Every religion believes itself to be right and all other religions to be wrong. Therefore EVERY religion is a dead end to itself no matter WHICH religion that is. And so therefore every religion is a threat to anyone opposed to it. That's logic 101. Someone needs to let the namisgrs of the world know how logic works and that NOT using logic is guaranteed to bite you in the arse at some point.

A clear example of government corruption funding a local news outlet to smear the character of someone running against the narrative and the system.
Chris Sky has been a pro choice activist during the entire pandemic.
He has fought for human rights like the right to choose an experimental medication being mandated into your body.
Chris Sky is now running for Mayor in Toronto, Canada..
The Canadian Government funded newspaper has written up a "biography" that has been "fact checked" about Chris Sky.
The biography paints him as an evil character and slants ALL of the points against him.
This is what happens you go against the Big Money narrative. You get destroyed, any way they can possibly do it .

The deeper you dig, the more you learn how much effort China put into affecting Canada's democracy.
The alarm on China’s interference is ringing louder
The evidence of China’s interference in Canada’s democracy was already alarming. Now, it’s doubly so, with fresh revelations that Beijing not only meddled with successive federal elections but also attempted to intimidate a sitting MP.
The Globe and Mail previously reported, based on Canadian Security Intelligence Service documents, that Beijing operatives tried to swing some riding outcomes in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections, although no one is saying those efforts changed who formed government.
The interference that CSIS described – including disinformation targeted at members of the Chinese diaspora in Canada, and illegal donations and tax fraud in some local campaigns – was troubling enough.
But The Globe reported on Monday, based on the leak of yet another top-secret CSIS report, that in 2021 Chinese intelligence operatives targeted the family of Conservative MP Michael Chong in order to intimidate him.

In Canada, Independent news reporting sites are NOT being allowed to cover Liberal politics.
The only sites that are allowed are the sites that are taking money from the Canadian government.
Shouldn't something like this be akin to treason for not allowing a free press to report on politics?

The Liberal Party in Canada held a convention recently. At the in-person Liberal Party convention, grassroots members voted to increase taxpayer subsidies for Canadian media. Terrifyingly, the same press must also make public their anonymous sources. Strangely enough, news media who DO NOT accept funding from the Liberal government were expelled from the convention and not allowed to report on it. Amazing, right?

You'll remember that Blacklocks' Reporter, a solid, factual, independent news agency is ALSO not allowed to attend Liberal government press conferences.
Why is that?
