Alright, so people may hear me speak about Mark Steyn. He's a guy with many labels such as Islamophobe and Right wing loon-job.
I really disagree with that assessment only due as people who call out to spur him usually do so with less-researched jabs than the ones he uses in his works, blogged or published. That and
INTERNEEEEET!!!!Anyways, he has been a busy man appearing in front of Parliamentary committees regarding the Human Rights Tribunals.
Now people don't like talking about them, especially politicians because anything that invokes the term 'human rights' and being against it is prime ground for misinterpretation, which is why the tories have not talked too much about it.
Now as a background, the first MP I voted for was the first person to stand up and say exactly why a "Human Rights Tribunal" was a bad thing... No, an unconstitutional thing.
National Post ArticleEssentially, the article gives a non-judicial body the ability to enforce hate crimes at their interpretation in a manner which is separate from the well-established court system.
Also in real terms, those who are accusing do not have to pay legal fees, while the defendants do.

youtube videos. I just want to point out that we really do have a bunch of clowns in power, although you really can ask any BC'er about Dosanjh..
Also, they invoked Godwin.
