On Shakedown

I finally had time to read Shakedown by Ezra Levant, and I must say I’m impressed by the energy he has put into this, as well as the uproar he has caused.

Ezra does all Canadians (and all people who live is supposedly “free” democracies) a service by outing the totalitarian lie the so-called human rights industry has become in this country.  The idiocy of the few actions Ezra flags are bad enough, but it is his detailed discussion of his dispute with the AHRCC that is the most telling – these people have no interest in fairness or the rule of law.  They are busybody bureaucrats who think that because they are an arm of the state they can do no wrong.

The Government of Canada should, at the very least, repeal Section 13 of the CHRA, and each province and territory should do the same to their legislation.  Ideally, they should accept that the ideals and societal demands that created the human rights commissions and tribunals is are something that belongs to our past, not our present or future.
