SHARIA LAW versus Canadian Freedoms!

In the article, Censorship in the Name of ‘Human Rights’,  the secular National Post sees Canadian “human rights commissions” as a “politically correct shakedown racket.”<!–[if !supportFootnotes]–>[i]<!–[endif]–>  Highlights include “human rights commissions are the perfect instrument to pursue their agenda of censorship”<!–[if !supportFootnotes]–>[ii]<!–[endif]–> and “Freedom of the speech, and of the press, and religion, all of which are called fundamental freedoms in our Constitution, now come second to the newly-discovered right of a thin-skinned bystander not to be offended.”<!–[if !supportFootnotes]–>[iii]<!–[endif]–>

But it is far more than that.  What some mistake for a “thin-skinned bystander” is actually Sharia Law!  We have two systems of law in Canada which ultimately cannot coexist.  Our Constitutional freedoms of the press, speech and religion; versus the Islamic control and censorship of constricted Islamic society through Sharia Law.

The National Post emphasizes, "The commissions are not neutral; they're filled with activists, many of whom aren't even lawyers and do not understand the free-speech safeguards contained in our Constitution."<!–[if !supportFootnotes]–>[iv]<!–[endif]–>  "Ordering a person - or a magazine - to say or publish words that they don't believe is an Orwellian act of thought control."<!–[if !supportFootnotes]–>[v]<!–[endif]–> 

Of course they don’t understand the free-speech safeguards recognized in our Constitution.  It is Sharia Law where there are no free-speech safeguards.  As the Canadian Islamic Congress is taking Maclean’s to a Human Rights Commission – who will be next? – Sharia Law is under no obligation to recognize Canada’s Constitutional freedoms.  A demographic study published in Maclean’s violates Islamic secrecy and therefore the Sharia Law idea of control.   

When The National Post calls this “A quirk in our legal system used to undermine our Western traditions of freedom,”<!–[if !supportFootnotes]–>[vi]<!–[endif]–> in the case of the CIC Sharia Law will not be absent.  Meanwhile, the CIC uses the smokescreen and Trojan horse of a “human rights commission” to actually to further implement Islamic control and censorship, bringing Canada one ominous step further into an Islam-dominated society! 

As freedom isn’t free, now is the time to see this “quirk” permanently restrained before it permanently restrains.  An extremely small but well-organized minority is taking advantage of the indifferent Canadian masses to turn western civilization upside down.  It is now or never to strengthen freedom of the press, speech and religion!

What I propose is that all “activists,” to become activists on human rights commissions – whether Islamic or “politically correct” - must first pass a federal test for competency in understanding Canada’s freedoms of the speech, press and religion.  Those who pass the test are then legally accountable, while serving on any “human rights” commission, for harassment and violation of those freedoms.  This quirk, this puff of smoke over the volcano, must be dealt with before the political volcano has a full-blown explosion!
