The Online Harms Bill, first introduced in 2021, was presented as a means to regulate online "hate speech," promotion of terrorism, and the sharing of abuse images—acts already prohibited by the criminal code.

"The checks and balances in Canada no longer work. The opposition parties often don't oppose. The media cheerleads, it's not skeptical or critical. The courts are of no use."

As Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre told True North in December, "We have to be very careful about giving any state czar the ability to define what he or she thinks is hate because we might end up being very surprised with their definition."

The Liberals are shutting down debate on Bill C11! This is a bill that gives the govn’t authority to control what we can see, hear and post online. Talk about censorship!

And now the govn’t is shutting down debate.

The Liberals have already passed two previous censorship laws, Bill C-18 and C-11, and have appointed a "digital safety commissioner."
