Crikey even in her housing report Comrade Barbara Hall takes a swipe at Free Speech

From the Ontario Human Rights Commission Marxist Opus - Right at Home: Report on the consultation on human rights and rental housing.

People protected under the Code, and persons advocating for housing on their behalf, are sometimes exposed to inappropriate comments and abuse. This may occur at meetings led by municipal staff or councillors, through websites or pamphlets, posters or flyers. Municipalities and elected officials are expected to ensure that poisoned environments contrary to the Code are not created at their meetings. Yet, concerns were raised that municipal councillors may use the same discriminatory language as their constituents and be wary about restricting opportunities for discriminatory comments to be made on the basis of free speech.

The rationale for permitting this abuse is that it represents free speech and true community feeling. For example, at Toronto City Council many councillors voted against a Planning Department recommendation that would have enforced human rights and equity principles at public meetings because they did not want to muzzle their constituents (HomeComing Community Choice Coalition).

Well, at least these people should have a human right to mental health counseling. Those who would brook no democratic dissent to their Utopian plans that they take to be guarantees of their own self-righteousness are simply nuts. Do we need to stop "debating" them and start calling on the government to get these nutters the help they need?

Comrade Hall is delusional, but I fear beyond the ability of medical science to heal.

It's time for citizen action to flush this bloated sack of whacko commie protoplasm.

I'm waiting for an opportunity to file a personal or collective citizen's information with the federal court.

I got out of the rental business because of so much government meddling. With Comrade Hall in full flight, there will be no rental housing as nobody would be stupid enough to be a landlord. Where I live now there is a $5000 fine for 'permitting' a grow-op in rental property - and the landlord is not permitted to watch his tenants 24 hours per day! No wonder there is a shortage of rental housing.

I just hope Ezra doesn't try to debater her. She is a instant cure for insomnia. Just picture Margaret Atwood's speaking voice. On Quaaludes...
