So let's say that you are the mullah of a mosque in Quebec... and every week you get up and make a long winded speech about killing the Jews and soldiers of western nations who attack ISIS - (and many do this). So members of your mosque go out and attack Canadian soldiers and Jews. Should you be held responsible for inciting violence?
Good question. This is how the law-making process begins.
During WW2, Canada has emergency measure acts to deal with domestic threats - time to dust them off.
Has to be. Otherwise, the determination of "hate" speech will become subjective. And before you know it, ANY comment the ruling powers don't like will get you thrown in jail or worse.
Canada should have gone after its criminal biker gangs a long time ago, too.
I'd like to see the laws regarding sedition dusted off.
Yes unfortunately the Canadian Human Rights Commission relying on the Canadian Human Rights Act passed in 1977 regularly rules that curtailing speech from any religious or racial minority is intolerant - no matter how hateful the speech. Strangely this law does not appear to apply to Jews - whose speech has regularly been curtailed on University campuses in Canada due to protests from Muslims.
However if you are a blogger in Canada and make intolerant remarks about Roma, Jews, Muslims, homosexuals, blacks, Arabs, and others then you will be immediately locked up as per the the Warman v. Northern Alliance, 2009 CHRT 10 and your website impugned in order pursuant to s. 54(1)(a)
But other cases demonstrate that posting of hate speech in Canada by Muslims is perfectly acceptable - including videos of beheadings by ISIS and other violent material.
