Rights commission rejects calls to stop investigating online hate
Canada's Human Rights Commission has rejected suggestions that it stop investigating hate messages on the Internet, saying the issue shouldn't be left solely to the Criminal Code.
....
This is more than an insult to Canadians, it is an assault on the values of free expression and democratic liberty. The CHRC is a corrupt, power mad bureacracy staffed by radical leftist zealots who have abused their power repeatedly and with impunity. This travesty cannot be allowed to continue.
The alleged Canadian Human Rights Commission and the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal have demonstrated their corruption time and again. These illegitimate bodies have tolerated the abuse of due process, misleading testimony under oath, evidence substitution and have in the words of Senator Jerry Grafstein been hijacked by extremists. The CHRC cannot be trusted to reform itself, they are a rogue organization that must be cleansed completely.
Are these words on the Conservative Party web site - Stand Up for Canada - the empty rhetoric of a "Brokerage Party?
Write the PM, write your member of parliament , write the members of the Justice Committee - Stop the CHRC. Let the members of the CPC know - no more donations, nothing - until Section 13 (1) is removed from the Canadian Human Rights Act and a full judicial inquiry is launched into the corruption at the CHRC.

I want to see the full report but it looks to me as though the 'Roos want to keep their "penalty" (read give Lucy the money) power while giving up their nearly never used "fining" power.
Yeah, right.
Out of time on this file Steve.
The e-mail alert informing me of this not unexpected result was the 1st thing I saw today. Harper has to act or lose the next election.
Respondents be awarded costs in "frivolous" complaints?
Who would decide what is frivolous? - The Commish? You would trust them? How about the Tribunal? Those Roos who have allowed repeated miscarriages of justice, to decide what is frivolous?
And what of the "cost awards" ?
Will they be for legal expenses, that almost all respondents could not afford to pay in the first place? No legal expenses - no cost awards? No legal expenses = no legal representation = guilty = no cost awards.
Sucker play!
What we need is someone to successfully sue for malicious prosecution, civil rights violations and criminal harassment. Yes - criminal harassment , not civil. The CHRC/CHRT have used s 13 as a substitute for s 319 of the criminal code, without allowing the respondent/defendants protection under the law or due process.
What we also need to do, is to bring justice to those who were wrongly accused and wrongly convicted under s13.
in short:
Fire. Them. All.
Close their doors.
Open their books.
Someone needs to go through their files. Someone needs to a complete forensic analysis of the criminality of this. This needs to be done in public - open for all to see. No Royal Commission where the investigative goalposts are narrowed, no Parliamentary committee review, no Department of Justice review - (they are in this as deep as the government)
We need third party non-partisans, from the public. Maybe 12 citizens, selected at random. by a lottery system, from the telephone book, to oversee and judge it. No friends or "special consultants" of the Commish. No political hacks. Just everyday citizens.
fourhorses, dead on.
There needs to be a full judicial investigation of the CHRC hate crimes unit going back to the beginning.
What a frivolous complaint might look like:
http://www.opinion250.com/blog/view/12480/1/human+rights+complaint+against+casino+dismissed
Awarding costs seems at least possible already in some provincial jurisdictions.
The only issue keeping me in the "conservative" camp was the war. Ignatieff trumps Harper on that score and - unlike Harper - Ignatieff has not tried courting Muslim "conservatives" (on gay pride day, no less) in a desperate attempt to secure the 905. The Liberal party need make no such devil's bargain, their ethnic blocs are secure and - as a consequence - Ignatieff need not give away (what is left of) the farm to win a few seats in Quebec.
If we are going to have a liberal prime minister he might as well be a Liberal.
Yes if I must vote for a brokerage party it may as well be the masters of that game - Hello Liberals;)
Jay - in the 9th century they held the Cadaver Synod and put the ex-Pope (deceased at that) on trial. We are not talking of exhuming the dead, but applying the principles of natural justice and over 800 years of Magna Carta to an ongoing miscarriage of justice. Jesus Christ - why can't Stevy Wonder wander out the front door at 24 Sussex and commit to true principles of human and civil rights in this country.
Was that wreath at Normandy just a photo op? My stomach turns.
PLUNK! - the sound of free speech being dropped into a CHRC waste basket.
Yep, vote for the Adscam party. That'll guarantee we'll never be rid of the HRCs.
Trust me I hope it dosen't come to that M&S, but if the conservatives fail to act then why not vote Liberal? At least their honest about being dishonest.
Ok, I'll give. I'll send my voting threat to my MP and to Harper.
Went to a 'post-debate breakfast with Tim Hudak' this morning....
Sounds that, like Randy Hillier, Tim Hudak would get rid of the Ontario HRC.
The only candidate who says that campaigning AGAINST the HRCs is a BAD thing is Christine Elliot - the wife of our Federal Finance Minister... She says that this would drive people to vote Liberal.
Could this be reflective of the Federal Conservative view? That the HRCs have still too much populous support to be openly opposed?
What it reflects is the pandering antics of politicos who have abandoned principle.
Reading the latest report of the nonsense from the HRC's, made me feel I was being anally abused.
Which is a nice segue into this interesting fact.
Obama's latest pick for the Supreme court Sonia Sodomeyeris appropriate. After all, Obama is slowly sodomizing the citizens of the US of A.
Any of this sound familiar? Any chance this might happen here Steve?
"11/06/2009 French anti-racism movement targeted in probe
Four SOS Racisme leaders where questioned by French police on Wednesday as part of a corruption probe.

France warns Ahmadinejad against racist attacks
UN anti-racism meet founders amid Western boycottParis – French police on Wednesday questioned four leaders of one of France's leading anti-racism movements, SOS Racisme, as part of a corruption probe involving a prominent opposition MP.
SOS Racisme president Dominique Sopo and three other leaders were taken to a Paris police station after a four-hour raid on the headquarters of the movement on Tuesday.
Investigators are looking into questionable cash transfers to bank accounts belonging to Julien Dray, a senior Socialist Party official and member of parliament and former top advisor to ex-presidential candidate Segolene Royal.
Dray, 54, is suspected of having received about EUR 350,000 (USD 494,000) since January 2006 from a group linked to SOS Racisme and the Fidl student organisation.
The member of the National Assembly, a co-founder of SOS Racisme, has denied any wrongdoing in the probe opened in December for breach of trust.
Founded in 1984, SOS Racisme spearheaded a successful campaign against discrimination in the late 1980s, leading huge street protests across France under the slogan "Touche Pas a Mon Pote" (Hands Off My Pal).
Dray's lawyer Leon-Lef Forster said his client was considering legal action to counter what he termed as leaks to the press about the investigation.
"The tactic used by investigators is aimed at politically destabilising and not calmly seeking the truth," said Forster.
"Mr Dray is ready to answer all of the questions that will be put to him and considers it unacceptable that he has not yet been questioned," he added.
Sopo and the three other leaders were expected to be released within 48 hours. Two other members of SOS Racisme were questioned earlier in the week.
Police conducted a first search of SOS Racisme's headquarters in Paris in December and the allegations have been vehemently rejected by Dray, who was Socialist Party spokesman from 2003 until 2008.
The investigation revolves around a support group called Les Parrains de SOS Racisme, presided by Pierre Berge, the wealthy former longtime partner of the late French fashion icon Yves Saint Laurent.

But how nice of the CHRC.
First they rejected similar proposals from the La Forest Report "Equality for All" (yup same one the young Liberals read enough of to find "Social Condition" and now Jenny rejects the "Moon Report".
Why doesn't she just publish her own? OOPs - guess she just did.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll have to return from my worries over the coming Depression and get back to blogging about why we can't afford this bureaucratic nonsense.
It's a doozie of a report Tru, real confusin like.
I'm with Jay Currie on this one. A complete stop to this despised organ of persecution. Than open all the books to see how much damage has been done. I don't think real trials against these fanatics is out of the question.
This has got to stop or Harper is no better than the Liberals. This is about power, not Law.
