Thank you for proving, publicly, for everyone to see, what some of us have known in private for some time:
THERE IS NO FREE SPEECH IN CANADA!
Unless… you are Muslim.
According to section 319 of the Criminal Code, Muslims can promote violent Jihad against us, because it’s in the Qur’an. But if we call them out for it, that’s an indictable offence.
Focusing on that gave your video a lot more impact, I think. And I particularly like the way you laid out your board to clearly show just how little room is left for speech once all the statutes are take into account.
And as for Sgt. Roussel and his line in the sand…
“If we don’t believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don’t believe in it at all.”
