EUMP Christine Anderson: Mr. Trudeau, you are a disgrace for any democracy. Please spare us your presence.
While most of Canada's mere citizens can't see anything wrong with Justin Trudeau's "leadership", people around the world who've suffered under the boot heel of a dictator call it out for what it is: a dictatorship of the worst kind.

Compelled Speech is Now the Law of the Land
Alberta Justice Adam Germain tore up the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, then spit the tattered remains in the face of Calgary Pastor Artur Pawlowski. Why?

Free Speech is Despised Across the Political Spectrum
All power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. —Lord Acton I expect politicians on the left of the political spectrum to despise free speech.

Edmonton Crown Prosecutor vs Mexican Police Hunted and Murdered by Drug Cartels
On June 8th I took great exception to a gutless and cowardly Edmonton Crown Prosecutor who feels the need to hide his or her identity from a Christian Pastor, the Pastor's wife and children and the Pastor's congregation and supporters. “A Crown prosecutor, whose identity is under a publication ban due to security concerns, called only one witness,” said the CBC. Security … [Read more...]
