Under the plan all publicly funded institutions will lose the freedom to refuse to buy goods and services from companies involved in the arms trade, fossil fuels, tobacco products or Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank

Frogs in boiling water

Is this diversionary politics in order to draw the heat from Hunt? They can't genuinely be this awful? ... can they?

[Eraser]

Wow, that's pretty shocking legislation.
Might only get worse with TTIP incoming though

[HM-PuFFNSTuFF]

that's truly fucked up.

shows how well a boycott would work and Israel is scared shitless of this. That's how Apartheid ended in South Africa in the end, economic boycott.

What a shocker

Trudeau Backs Conservative Motion Condemning BDS Movement Against Israel

http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2016/02/22 ... 93904.html

[seremtan]

The Tory motion calls upon the government to condemn any and all attempts by Canadian groups or individuals to promote the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement, which it describes as promoting the "demonization and delegitimization" of Israel.

"This goes against the freedom of expression we hold so dear in our society," Mulcair said following the vote Monday.

Mulcair said one can disagree with the boycott movement and debate it.

"But to call upon the government to condemn someone for having that opinion, that's unheard of," Mulcair said, adding that motion "makes it a thought crime to express an opinion."

the job of government is to make laws, not issue 'condemnations' (that's the job of protest groups), so the motion is intrinsically stupid. furthermore, it has no legal force, therefore idiots crying about their freedom of speech are crying needlessly since they aren't being deprived of it in the slightest way

it's official: Canada has gone full retard

[Captain]

Um no, it's just one step closer to criminalizing any kind of anti-Israel sentiment, whether through boycott or journalistic means. Mulcair has to be careful about his choice of words or his party will be labeled anti-semitic by Sun Media.

Oh wait, too late

[seremtan]

one step closer to criminalizing any kind of anti-Israel sentiment

only because Canada clearly lacks both a strong commitment to, and legal safeguard of, free speech. free speech won't work if people just want to ring-fence their own opinions while allowing open season on anyone else's

people who are concerned that their freedom of speech is being chipped away at over this issue should perhaps ask themselves whether, at some time in the past, someone else's freedom of speech wasn't abridged in some way while they stood idly by, or perhaps even applauded the abridgement

[Captain]

They can't hear themselves think with the sound of Native bones cracking underneath their crocs.

If that happened at some point in the past, it wouldn't invalidate concerns about one's own freedoms. It may be hypocritical but when it comes down to it, everyone is.

[seremtan]

i wasn't implying that it did

also, who says it's all in the past anyway? i wonder how many Canadians worried that their freedom to criticise Israel is under threat also endorse existing hate speech laws in Canada - the very laws that could easily be extended to criminalise their BDS(M)-loving sentiment?
